Where are you going to retire?

I plan to die where I was born.

Chattanooga.

I don't want to leave the south, and my mom moved there about 18 months ago. I would like to be close since she's getting older.

My parents house in Asheville. When I am ready to retire they will be dead so it will work out well. Don't even have to change the monogram on the towels.

I plan on selling my small business in about 6 years (I'm 41) then for the next 5 years, my wife and I are going to travel around wherever we feel like going. She is a nurse and has taken travel assignments before. Take a 3 month travel assignment around and live out of a 5th wheel.

At some point, we will decide where we want to settle down for good.

Ferriday, LA

I always thought that I wanted to retire to some exotic location where you would typically only spend vacations....as I get older, I am feeling more of an instinct pulling me back to the town where I grew up.

If you were you, where would you retire, and why?

Somewhere without a state income tax if possible.

ETA: Not necessarily a "where" answer, but I am pretty certain I'd like to take college classes wherever I retire, and I'd like to do that in a traditional classroom of it is still available in 2055.
