This review is from: Choose the Southwest: Retirement Discoveries for Every Budget (Choose the Southwest for Retirement: Retirement Discoveries for Every Budget) (Paperback)

We are still in the 'dreaming of retiring' stage, and so it is hard for us to judge how practical or accurate the advice in the book really is, as we are not yet seriously shopping. But it does give us a 'ball park' idea of what it would cost to move to the Southwest. When we take our next vacation out there, we plan to expand our 'dreaming', using this book, to scope out some of the communities recommended in the book as affordable vibrant retirement options.
