[quote=Anonymous]OP is this Venice Beach? Crime really isn’t up and Venice Beach has always had some dodgy characters around so it’s odd that they are all of a sudden obsessed by crime. It could be anxiety or a constant diet of fear inducing right wing media junk. Don’t underestimate how bad conservative media is for the elderly.

Do all the relatives live in SoCal or are some in the Bay Area or further north? If they have relatives in the Bay Area they could look at moving to Monterey /Pacific Grove as it’s older and quieter. Carmel also trends older. If they are not looking for a large house they could fine one fr 2M in PG , for Carmel they’ll need to be further inland but still doable. I don’t know SoCal very well but there are probably quieter coastal towns that trend older too. They can do a 1031 and I believe senior citizens get to take their tax status with them. ( Non Californians don’t realize that your property taxes almost freeze when you buy your house. If you move away and then move back/buy again then you’re stuck with being taxed at current value which many people can’t afford. ) Leaving can be a one way ticket.

If they are serious about Vegas, Nevada is a popular requirement state. Arizona used to be big but people are getting worried about water mismanagement there.
