In some cases, especially as you age, access to doctors, particularly specialists, can come into play.

My wife and I were about to turn 80 when we moved to Granbury five years ago. Medical care is a concern, but we are close enough to Fort Worth and Dallas that we feel comfortable. Since we've lived here, I've had back surgery and knee replacement, the back surgery in FW and the knee surgery in Dallas. My primary care physician is in FW, but my wife found a female DO with whom she is comfortable here in Granbury. She has had surgery twice in Dallas since we moved here.
