Why should you move for retirement?

If you have specific requirements, it’s a great idea to move to a place where your needs can be easily satisfied. Retirement brings into your life the moment when you can choose what kind of lifestyle you prefer. Do you want to be more active, or do you just want to relax? Do you want to move by the sea or live in the center of a big city? Once you analyze every aspect and decide what you would enjoy more, you’ll be one step closer to an amazing time as a retiree.

A lot of people feel the need for change when retiring, and that is why moving to a new city is a popular choice in the golden years. Most of the new retirees want to move to a retirement-friendly neighborhood in a smaller house. This will free up resources for other activities and new hobbies.

    Why do I get the feeling that this list is compiled by 20-30 yo who don’t want the old geezers infiltrating their favorite hangouts?

    Living near our adult children and grandchildren is likely the most important aspect of our mental state of mind during retirement. Looking forward to seeing them on the weekend for a BBQ, swim in our pool, or baking cookies is a key driver for our mental state of mind. Knowing they live nearby when there is an emergency, and we can help each other is rewarding and lowers stress.

    We have done lots of traveling throughout the world since retiring, and the experiences were wonderful. Now that we are getting older, we limit our travels outside the United States unless we can travel with a family member.

    We are fortunate to have lived in our home for over 38 years. Our kids and grandchildren love coming to our house. The downside is remodeling and repairs to our long-term house can get expensive. But the memories make it worthwhile.
