Small Communities Luring Retirees

Hi:

Many small towns across Canada and the US are stepping into the retirement stream and the current is swift.

Small quiet communities see the benefits of retired folks. They bring their money and often considerable assets into a community.

The newly retired buy new luxury homes or townhomes. With extra cash from their old home equity, boomers can finally buy all the little luxuries they have been waiting for. They can afford luxury and buy it. When else are they going to have their fantasy home? When they are 70 or 80? Oh no, these folks are going for it now.
Now is the time boomers are decorating to their heart's content.

Besides redecorating their home, people are pursuing leisure activities. Golf, walking, birdwatching, bicycling and boating are great ways to spend time and enjoy the good life.

Small communities who offer these amenities are bustling with action. The few good restaurants are busy every night, and the great establishments are catering to a grey-haired, plaid shirt set. Some communities are very actively laying out the red carpet and the welcome mat.

More tomorrow.
