Mississippi: Madison
Maybe the best if you enjoy soulless suburbia with faux architecture.
Missouri: Ladue
This is more legit. Probably the richest suburb of STL. Still wouldn’t want to live there.

Lol. Naples Sucks? Oh yeah the one city in the United States where the average person makes 70% more income then the bottom 99% sucks???? Its a fact..look it up. It recently was the the wealthiest county in the United States with the highest density of millionaires. To say this place sucks tells me right off the bat that you've never even been there. Because I have lived everywhere in the United States for school and work - from Miami, to LA, to Vegas, to New York in the Caribbean, and in the UK. Everywhere I go people have visited Naples and think it's awesome.
Only about 30% of the Collier County population is 65 or older. Naples is a young town.

30% over 65 is an older town, FWIW
For comparison, Atlanta is like 10-15%

That's a pretty high percentage.
You sure it's not lower than that?

Damn. I'd like to be in the home care, nursing home, assisted living, hospice, funeral or dead body transport business in that county and town.

Actually second thought, no. That sounds really depressing.

Someone has to do it, the town is full of demand, and everybody dies. I'm sure supply is full up down there, though.

Imagine your day as a courier for an undertaker. You start your day at 7. Get in your van and hit your nursing home route to pick up the night’s catch, maybe you get that done by noon. Then for the afternoon you’re hitting all the people that were in home hospice, the unexpected ones, the younger or more independent ones. A decent portion of these people are going to be obese, some morbidly so. You’re gonna have to deal with that.
You’re going to have to enter homes with families that are in shock and do it every day.
All day you deal in old people corpses. The smells. The sights. The sadness. Even though they’re old there’s still going to be a lot of sadness.
I can’t imagine clocking out at 5 and hitting a bar or yucking it up to my favorite TV show, Rick and Morty. I imagine it would suck the life out of you after about a week.

You're giving closure to families that need it.
Besides, I bet a lot of the time the family won't even be there because these are retirees from the North, so you'll be dealing with a lot of staff.

This list is probably pretty accurate. I'll take Fayetteville over Bentonville, though, but it's close either way.
Hilariously, Springdale has the reputation as "the crap town" in NWA, but since it is part of the NWA metro (and really not all that bad overall) it's still preferable than most Central Arkansas suburbs.

Sure at the end, when the soil starts getting shoveled but your boss, the Funeral Director, gets that satisfaction. No, you swoop in in your necro-Uber and snag the person right after the fact. There’s no closure in that, it’s all part of the shock.
Most of the people you’ll deal with will probably be in homes but families tend to show up when people are on death’s door, you’re gonna have to interact with them some not insignificant portion of the time.
