More and more retirees are choosing an urban environment for their retirement years. Because of the large number of people approaching retirement age in the next two decades, this could be the largest social trend of the early 21st century.
The urban setting provides a wide array of entertainment possibilities, restaurants, experiences, and vistas. You are often within walking distance of local attractions. It is easy to get around, especially if there is a good public transportation system [like a Metro (Washington DC, HART (Tampa), BART (Bay Area)]. Unlike living in the suburbs, you are already “where the action is.”
The exercises in my book Where Will You Retire?: A Retirement Guide And Exercises For Deciding Where To Retire, Buy A Second Home, Or Relocate* are designed to help you determine what kind of retirement lifestyle is best for you. Will you be part of the latest retirement trend and become a city dweller?
