5.0 out of 5 stars Great for finding the perfect place to retire, September 5, 1999
This review is from: 50 Fabulous Places to Retire in America (Paperback)
This is the wonderful book for finding the perfect place to retire. You learn about each city's climate, costs, taxes, real estate, crime, culture, recreation, transportation, education, medical care & job market.

The overview section is very helpful for getting a feel for the city as well recognizing both its positives & drawbacks. A listing of newspapers, a realtor, & the Chamber of Commerce with contact information is also great aid.

Since a great climate is important to me, I also found the detailed data on weather helpful. It includes seasonal high/low temp, avg. rain/snow inches, avg. # of rainy days, & avg. humidity. The # of days below 32 & over 90 is also included.

As a bonus this book also helps you figure out how much money you will need & how to make it work for you. Tips on moving successfully are also included. If you're thinking about retiring, or even just moving, this is the book you.

4.0 out of 5 stars 50 Fabulous Places to Retire, January 7, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: 50 Fabulous Places to Retire in America (Paperback)
This book is a little dated, but it seems to be the most current available on the subject. The RetirementInsider website has many more communities and more current information.
