Just kidding, but the FAQs said to make a subject line that was interesting.
We're going to do early retirement in Sept '09, we'll be 54 years old. This was a little earlier than we anticipated due to health reasons, but I think it's going to work out OK. We presently live in MO, but I need to get out because of sinus problems.
I'm sure I'll find out a ton of information on this forum, but one of the first things I want to start researching is a place to live. Here's my "best-case" scenario:
Low humidity (a must)
Reasonably mild winter (minimal snow and ice)
Affordable housing
Low crime
We're looking at Albuquerque, mostly because it's a place we've visited and know a little bit about. But we're not restricted to that by any means. Climate will be a big factor, since I'm getting out of MO due to my allergies and the humidity. Neither one of us are particularly enamored of big cities, but we don't want to live in a burg, either. The city we live in now is about 200,000.
Any suggestions?
