When you are old, you want to live around old people in my opinion. My in-laws retired to South Carolina and while it is a beautiful state, they chose a house in a new middle class neighborhood. Most of their neighbors are young couples with children and there really isn’t much they have in common.
My parents retired to a mostly retirement community in SW Florida (Engelwood) and are surrounded by people of their age who are like them, looking for stuff to do. There are so many options for them to meet people and do what interests them, or skip things. I know there is poker in their sub.
Me personally I don’t want to hang around a nasty casino in retirement, but I hope to be playing poker at 2 PM on Tuesdays!
