Let us take a tour of various retirement locations in different parts of the United States which should help you to make the best possible decision about where you should ultimately retire. Of course, you have quite a number of attractive locations to think about – so the choice could be a difficult one.
Let’s try to take stock. For starters, there’s St. George in Utah, with its picturesque setting, close to the Snow Canyon, Bryce Canyon and Grand Canyon. An attractive place, with its own novel features of cultural life such as the Shakespearean Festival, the Tuacahn Theatre and highlights such as the Huntsman Senior Games, to name just a few.
Then there’s Bellingham, offering you the unique charm of scenic beauty coupled with urban convenience. Among the highlights here, you’ll find the Interurban Trail System and ski slopes of Mount Whistler and Mount Baker nearby, which will surely beckon if you are fond of skiing.
The richness of Portsmouth comes mainly from the historical atmosphere of the place. There are so many old and unique properties here. And then of course there’s the Music Hall for concerts and the Strawberry Banke historical Museum.
Savannah has an old world charm about it with plenty of mansions, old oak trees and walking trails. And don’t forget the Telfair Art Museum and Coastal Senior, the magazine that makes Savannah unique.
Largo in Florida has plenty going for it, as it is practically a vacation spot in itself. Apart from the low crime rate and the variety of people living here, which has resulted in a diverse range of cuisine, you really must visit the Largo Cultural Centre, where music festivals are often held.
And what about Franklin in Tennessee, with its small town charm – a charm so powerful that it brought in senior citizens who had already settled elsewhere? Franklin will give you your fill of scenic beauty with its rolling hills. The pace of life is slow here and may be just what you want. The cost of living is also fairly low.
