I retired when I lived in Santa Clara. I chose AZ as it offered politics more aligned with mine. Cheaper cost of living. Golf 365 days a year. 24 years now and no regrets. 
I'd pass on Florida cause I hate high humidity but to each their own. Better than California. |
I think it'll truly come down to tax rate(s) and where my pension money will have the most room to stretch its metaphorical legs.
Sedona was great and I grew up visiting family in Phoenix/Tempe, so I'm somewhat familiar with Arizona as a state. I also dated a girl who lived in Kingman and one who lived in Flagstaff.
I spent a lot of time in Austin due to another female I dated. Austin was too blue for me, but it's clean.
I'm heading to Miami in September to get a lay of the land. We'll see how I feel about it after spending some time there.
