When it comes to retiring, there are so many options for where to live. For people who love the convenience of a big city without the sky rocketing costs, here is an idea you may not have thought of yet – why not retire in a college town? I know what you’re thinking – my days of keg stands and skipping class are over!
Don’t worry, you can leave those activities to the youngsters (unless you want to join in on the keg stand, I think that would be pretty cool) but because of the well-known fact that college kids are poor, these towns offer affordable living for people of all ages.
Not to mention, these towns have great health care plans due to hospitals that are affiliated with these schools.
Do I have you intrigued yet?
Good, consider these places mentioned in the video above. Towns like Oxford, Mississippi or Austin, Texas provide low cost housing and also provide plenty of culture and entertainment to make all your down time enjoyable. Retirement is an exciting part of life!
With towns like these, you’ll never experience a dull moment as you watch the latest shows, discover the coolest shops, and taste the finest food. Plus maybe if you’re lucky, your grand-kids will go to school in your hometown! Win/win situation – you get to see them more and they don’t have to pay for laundry!
