I retired to Florida from a northern state. I have no regrets.....Insurance is getting expensive but its still cheaper to live here than a northern state. We have modern infrastructure and very good hospitals.
I've lived in Florida for 15 years and love it, but it's time to move. Lot's of people are moving here which makes a lot traffic. I'm looking at Colorado. Thank you Olga❤
I lived in CO all my life until I moved to AZ to be close to Mom. Check carefully. Rents & housing very high, traffic is horrible (only 1 major N/S highway), weather VERY unpredictable (some winters mild, some 15 major snowstorms), terrible immigrant, homeles, & drug problems. This is from my friends also who still live there. Was also first states to legalize pot. It's so bad, you smell it everywhere, even at lights with windows up. High drivers, too many young hippie wannabes, very unfriendly people overall. Good luck 👍
I recall a comment that one issue with Florida is that some of the doctors move there essentially to "semi-retire" and are less interested and committed in caring for their patients.
Hi there! Arizona is definitely in the top 10! Arizona is a popular retirement destination, with several of its cities ranking among the best places to retire in the United States. Scottsdale, in particular, is highly regarded, ranking sixth on WalletHub's list of best places to retire in the U.S., largely due to its high quality of life. Other Arizona cities also feature prominently in retirement rankings. For instance, Tempe is ranked 21st, Chandler 66th, Tucson 81st, and Phoenix 85th on WalletHub's list. Do you want more AZ resources? Please let me know.
@AtHomewithOlga sorry,.....it's a song. I live in Georgia now, and the cost of living is very reasonable. Consider the north side of Valdosta. $1,400 per month for a nice 2 BR - 2 BA, gated community. No traffic jams, for us military retirees, there is a commissary and exchange at Moodys AFB. Just moved here 2 months ago. So far.....so good.
The Gold Coast of Southern California is a great place to retire if you have LOT's and LOT's of MONEY! 🤣 I've lived here for 35 years...I'm moving to the Philippines.
I lived one winter in Colorado and that was enough. It's nice in warm weather but awful in cold.

That's great! What part of Florida are you in? I plan on doing a video specifically on retiring in Florida and would love your imput.
I’m in Naples. I’ve been here 10 yrs
We may have to take another look at Florida 🤔
@@mylegalassistants good idea. Look at the cost of homeowner's insurance, car insurance and the general cost of living in different parts.

@@zenawarrior7442 Thank you for chiming in!
@@Olga_StPierreMost welcome😊
Colorado has a state income tax!
Thanks!
These are in order of our priorities... crime rate, affordable, health care, taxes weather and cost of insurance across the board.
I am french living in France and if I have to choose, Wyoming for me will be the first place to live. I love nature and real people.
Thank you Christian! I also plan on doing a video of different countries to retire to!
@@Olga_StPierre Would love to see prettiest towns to live in Wyoming.

Interesting. I am planning on doing a video about retirement in Florida. Stay tuned!
For Florida, look at the cost of HOA before you buy an house there.
100% and what HOA dues cover and don't cover. Cost of water?
Warm weather, cost of living and low taxes would probably be my top priorities. Where does Arizona rank? thank you!

Olga I like your videos because they are very informative and useful. Can you make a video for veterans to retire in. Thanks
You got it! Added it to my list.
Hawaii is really quite affordable if you are already retired because property taxes are good and they don’t tax pensions
And the weather is awesome!
home prices are most expensive there and they're a bunch of lefties in politics
Georgia......Georgia.....the whole day though.....
Please share your tips!

@@surfboy344 Sounds great, thanks!
The best state to retire in all respect is California
Thanks! I would love to hear more!
I live in California it's becoming a cesspool homelessness crime high taxes can't beat the weather though
@@chriscarson8218 Perhaps it's time to make a move?
😂

Living in Cali for almost 50 yrs, I am looking at Virginia for my retirement.
Wow, cross country move! What area of VA?
