    Wow! Seriously underrated channel, love your presentation and delivery format!
    One thing I look for (as well as everything you mentioned) is access to one or more major airports

    I have been looking for another channel to watch besides Briggs. I started to watch this and quickly noticed that Gen X is 1965 to 1980, not 1970. I’m looking forward to finishing it and I will look around for some other things to watch that you do to.

    I lived in 5 of the 10 listed. "Colorado, Wyoming, Florida, Delaware, Virginia". And worked and visited all 10 or have family in many.. I agree with Jackie's 4-Season wish. For the most part this list hits the mark, except Florida. It's unaffordable for seniors on a budget. So my 2 cents worth is New Hampshire is the prettiest, North Dakota is the coldest, Minnesota is fantastic for fishing or lake living but cold., Idaho beautiful and has a housing shortage. South Dakota is better than ND, but because of the Black Hills Area, Colorado is amazing and my favorite place to have lived, but $$$$ Wyoming is way too isolated, Florida is too crazy and property insurance is an issue. Delaware is very nice, and affordable, Virginia deserves it's #1 ranking. Anywhere except around D.C. Go to the Southwestern part or the Northern Neck. All this said from someone 8 years retired with a working spouse and stuck in California for a few more years. If you want the most bang for the buck, check out North Augusta S.C , humid Yes, but four seasons. and if you like nice small towns, Kingsport/Bristol TN. Now that we are all friends you can all come help me pack,. Lunch served.

    Heck no to North Dakota, Minnesota and South Dakota. Winters aren't just a little cold, they are literally the coldest in the lower 48. Wyoming is cold too but for people who like scenery/hiking/outdoors it at least has mountains. I'm willing to pay a premium for good weather (for me that's not cold winters) and scenery/outdoors. But I have another 25 years until retirement age so I guess my mind can change, but not likely.

    I used to like the prospect of retiring in Florida. But, now that the home insurance market has gone “off the rails”, I have opened my mind to other areas of the US. I have even started looking into retiring abroad, given our current political atmosphere. However, I really appreciate your insight and opinions of what goes into an formed retirement choice.

    Colorado is very expensive today. My wife grew up there and has family there. Also very crowded. Californians have adversely impacted the quality of life there. Maybe its affordable in the agricultural areas where livestock outnumber humans.
    We lived in NoVa for 10 years. Super crowded, very expensive, humid and full of govt types. Maybe its affordable down in the rural southern part of the state.
    Florida was a top contender for us before home and auto insurance costs skyrocketed.
    We will either stay in AZ or take our chances on South Carolina.

    Delaware health care got a mention on another video where people were recommended to sign up with a doctor (dentist, whatever) before you move because with the massive influx of people now, many doctors aren't taking new patients. I have heard other areas have a dearth of doctors taking more Medicare patients. In other areas they share specialists so yours is in two two days a week or something. Consider in the northern Great Plains you might have to drive hours to find ordinary services. In tourist areas, there are the huge price rises and mobs of strangers, not always law-abiding, in season, such as in Rapid City by the Black Hills. With the oil boom in ND quiet, that horror show has let up: no housing, truckers dumping jugs of urine out their windows as they roar through, oil in the air and on your skin, and too bad if you are a sensitive child or allergic adult. People were commuting to SD to find a place to stay, pushing up prices beyond local reach. That has all subsided, for the present along with expensive plans by the legislature. It really is important to go visit a place, in and out of tourist season. I would also strongly suggest monitoring their local news for awhile to get an idea of local issues that might seriously impact your life.
