[quote=Anonymous]Just curious whether it was somehow helpful or important to your kids for you to still live in the same house/neighborhood where they went to high school. We will be close to retirement age when last kid goes to college and I imagine that we will not want or need the big family house at that time. But, I can also see that it would be nice for kids to come back during college to be in their old neighborhood. And then there is the thought that they might want to live rent-free after college when they start working, etc. etc. I can see that having the family house would be convenient for certain times (holidays, etc.), but really, what do people find to be the right time to downsize. (we recently vacationed in a 2 bdrm condo -- one level and really like it! made us wonder why we have so much space and how long we will want a big house after the kids leave). I'm just looking for other people's wisdom.[/quote]
