So how did Forbes determine this years list? They said “We reviewed data for hundreds of cities in all 50 states, plus the District of Columbia. Besides the usual financial factors, we looked at weather, availability of doctors, serious crime rates and encouragement for an active retirement. To do this, we considered evaluations by Bicycling Magazine and volunteeringinamerica.org.”
Sounds pretty good. And here is the list:
- Tulsa, Oklahoma
- Tuscon, Arizona
- Savannah, Georgia
- San Antonio, Texas
- Salt Lake City, Utah
- Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
- Phoenix, Arizona
- Pensacola, Florida
- Lynchburg, Virginia
- Las Cruces, New Mexico
- Knoxville, Tennessee
- Huntsville, Alabama
- Fort Myers, Florida
- Fargo, North Dakota
- Corpus Christi, Texas
- Columbia, South Carolina
- Columbia, Missouri
- Cape Coral, Florida
- Boise, Idaho
- Bloomington, Indiana
- Austin, Texas
- Atlanta, Georgia
- Asheville, North Carolina
- Alexandria, Louisiana
- Albuquerque, New Mexico
I’m a long way off retirement and there are a lot of places on this list I would love to go to right now! Texas and New Mexico are popular and maybe the heat is something to do with that! Cold isn’t good for old bones.
