    I have owned both types of pool systems, while a salt system is hands down the more favorable pool to swim or play in. Safer? yes. but not without its issues either. the salt equipment breaks down the salt in the cell and produces or all things chlorine but naturally not by adding chemical chlorine. Cheaper? Not really, not really less maintenance either the PH still has to be monitored closely otherwise it will rise and calcium deposits will form, the equipment will also become subjective to premature failures. Salt pools still have to be winterized unless kept heated to maintain 58 to 60 ° minimum water temperatures.
    Where people make their biggest mistakes with chlorinated pools is over treating them with chemicals or allowing their pool to go too long without cleaning and or reactivation. Then they shock treat the water. Draining and refilling at least every 3 to 5 years is a good idea or replenishing at least 25% of the water each year The more money spent up front when installing a pool with top quality mostly automated filtration and cleaning systems the less expensive the pool is to maintain throughout its service life.
    With all that being said if I were to ever install another in the ground pool I would probably look into an earth natural aquaculture multiple pond system with aeriation fountains
