Sorry to get off track. I (hopefully) have 33 years or so until I retire. At this point in my life I hate the heat and love the Winter and would absolutely consider staying in the area when I retire.
If you read what I first wrote - we are the fifth OLDEST state. Not from a historical sense of old but from a demographic sense of OLD (over 65 y/o) Demographics shift with cost of living, healthcare availability, abundance of skilled nursing care facilities, longevity, etc.
