From experience.
Live where you want and when you want to go see your kids and grandkids, go close by and get a great hotel where they can come over and swim and eat great.
Young couples are starving for time and the travel to go see relatives and sleep on the couch is hard on them.
Also. From what I've seen as people get older they don't have the patience to have grandchildren running loose in their house. It's better to have your own roofs and space.
Live where you want and go see them and have fun.

I think folks often overestimate how much their grown children will come to visit them, and underestimate what a strain (time, money, traveling with kids) it places on the visitors.
