Horizons broadened! One of the appeals of Florida for me is no state tax, no taxation of ss or pensions and low housing costs.
BKM for later
Actuarial tables indicate you will live 20-30 years longer than your parents.
Tax consideration is as important in relocating as well as current tax policy.
Geographic relocation will affect which activities you may participate in; I fish only freshwater when at home in the north, and fish only saltwater when in Florida.
Evaluate your current health needs, be honest about yourself and your companion, and your family health history will determine you need to be in proximity to hospitals.
Housing depends on what you can afford, and what your future needs may be (condo with elevator, multiplex with activities, single floor residence, healthcare facility, etc.).
If your interest is only taxation, look and see where the retired military folks retire..
but plan based upon what your current and future needs may be since you may live beyond your retirement money and income.
