[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everyone. I definitely think the Midwest suits me better weather wise. Not a fan of the awful humidity here.

As for living near my kids, I have no idea where they will end up. One is here locally and living with college friends in a group home. The other is a travel nurse so she doesn't really live anywhere for long.

I would prefer something move-in ready with the possibility of fixing it up. I have been looking online and this is kind of what I'm looking for:

Looks like a nice neighborhood with decent schools (for resale), walking distance to the lake, walkable to grocer store, coffee shop, etc. It is move in ready but if I wanted to finish off the attic, I could. Fenced backyard that isn't too much to take care of, a garage, [/quote]

Coming to recommend Grosse Pointe Park, Grosse Pointe, and Grosse Pointe Farms, MI. You will be blocks from a major lake with access to a city-only lakefront park, the links I am going to put below are all within 1-3 blocks of several shopping and restaurant areas on the same street that include groceries, coffee shops and book stores (Kercheval). The schools are some of the top in the state.
