[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can but I would choose your climate and access to medical care very, very carefully. At 60+, it's all fun and games in a colder climate. But skiing loses its appeal when you're 80. Also don't overestimate your children's desire to have you live near them, and their plans to stay in one location for the rest of your lives.[/quote] IMO, don't pick a place just because that's where your kids are because they can move, too. Between my spouse and I, only one sibling stayed near a parent. The rest of us all moved far away. But do live in a place that has easy access to an airport. OP, I have thought about this, too. I don't want to retire here in the DC area. But, if we move to some other state, we'd have to start over meeting new friends. I'm thinking of maybe coordinating where to retire with my siblings. They also aren't thinking about retiring near their grown kids because of what I wrote above.[/quote]
