What’s your personal retirement plan, or maybe retirement fantasy?
A) A sandy beach community with a chill vibe and lots of frosty drinks
B) A senior-friendly burb with shops, pickleball courts, multitudes of doctors, and temperatures that rarely dip below 90
C) A sprawling one-stop-shop retirement community
D) A city with, well, everything a city has to offer

They’re ditching the stock notions of retirement from previous generations and seeking to spend their golden years in urban areas that have walkability, great restaurants, culture, good public transport, and decent prices—pretty much the same things that America’s other ginormous demo group, millennials, crave.
