Lancaster might be best known for its Pennsylvania Dutch culture, but it's apparently also a pretty good place to retire.
The city ranked third on U.S. News & World Report's listing of the best places to retire in 2020.
Lancaster, located about two hours from Philadelphia, fell two spots in the annual rankings after shining in the No. 1 position last year. Decreases in its happiness and housing affordability scores prompted its fall from the top position. But it still received a 7.4 overall score.
