I am British.   When I retire, if I live in USA will my state pension increase each year (as it would in U.K)?

Also, is there a list of countries where the U.K state pension WILL increase each year to compensate for inflation ?

( I know that in some countries it won't  -  which pretty much rules out moving there )

Thanks.

Update:

( When I say 'state pension' I mean British national state pension )

Update 2:

" no one can move there without a job "   -  That's simply not true if one has a pension which proves that you will be no burden on the U.S state.

I will agree that one needs to apply through immigration though,  but that wasn't really the question was it.

    Unless you worked in the state, you won't have any state pension.  Pensions generally are set and they do not change.

    Why do you think you can retire to the USA? You would have to apply through Immigration, no one can move there without a job.
