So, I'm a little over six years away from my target retirement date. Me and SWMBO have been talking about where to retire. We've discussed teh following options:
1 - Staying in Vegas - Not a fan of this option. I don't much like it here.
2 - Moving back to our house in Phoenix. My oldest sone is renting it now with a friend of his and he's expressed interest in buying it.
3 - Tucson. We have a lot of relatives in Tucson and I like it there.
4 - Wickenburg. Not far from family in Phoenix with nice rolling terrain and a straight shot down the 60 to arguably the best senior citizen medical facilities in the country.
5 - Sonoita. We have relatives near there (Sierra Vista) and it's pretty country side with plenty of wineries (wifes idea).
6 - Become an expat. I like the travel idea and there's plenty of places to move to where it's fairly cheap to live. However, it would be to far from family.
7 - Move to another state. Not much of a fan about this idea. See family comment above.
8 - Build an ADU on our Phoenix property.
9 - Build on our property in Northern Arizona which sits between Show Low and Concho. Gets pretty cold up there and I'm sitting about 1,000' over the water table. A well will cost North of $30K by itself.
The Arizona options have the drawback in that I'm really getting tired of the summer heat. We can alleviate that by traveling all summer. We would like to visit all the national parks in the US.
