Researching a Move to Another State--What Resources are Available?
I'm just starting out with the planning of my retirement. One thing I know right now--I want to get out of Minnesota. (It snowed on Sunday, about an inch.)
I'd like to use the internet to winnow down some choices before I actually visit potential areas. I've found some resources to use that have been helpful but I figure I should ask this group for anything they found useful when they were looking to move out of state.
So far, I've found:
Sperlings Best Places to Live
https://www.bestplaces.net/
Research and compare communities for a variety of factors.
City Data
City-Data.com - Stats about all US cities - real estate, relocation info, crime, house prices, cost of living, races, home value estimator, recent sales, income, photos, schools, maps, weather, neighborhoods, and more
Research and compare communities for a variety of factors.
Numbeo

State Tax Guide for Retirees

What other resources did you find to be helpful if/when you planned your move?
