As retirement approaches, you may start thinking about where you want to spend your golden years. There are many factors to consider (i.e.weather, culture, economics, convenience) when choosing from a variety of retirement community options. Over the years, many people have associated “retirement” with “Florida” because it checked off many of the boxes. However, this may not be the case for much longer.
Recently, personal finance website, WalletHub, shared their “2023’s Best States to Retire” study, which reported that the No. 1 state for retirement changed from The Sunshine State to Virginia. There were three categories they considered when comparing the 50 states: affordability, quality of life, and access to health care. Virginia took the top spot, and as one of Williamsburg’s private, member-owned communities that are home to retirees, we can understand why.
Williamsburg, Virginia, offers it all — cultural experiences, modern health care, and mild year-round weather. Rich in its history, Williamsburg preserved its colonial charm. Today, you can stroll down the city’s cobblestone streets and explore history’s most memorable moments at local museums and designated sites. In and around the area are major medical centers within easy driving distance. The weather lives comfortably between cool and warm temperatures – something all retirees can enjoy. It also lends itself to Williamsburg’s coastal location, giving people the chance to explore the waters with wonderful weather on fishing and boating trips.
These elements give retirees a sense of peace of mind fueled by all of the fun possibilities Williamsburg has to offer. The city’s thriving retirement community scene offers opportunities for retirees to socialize and remain active.
