If you are looking for a peaceful place to enjoy life in a true golfing environment, look no further than Pinehurst Village. The village is charming and the golf is spectacular and historic.  Nearby towns like Southern Pines offer different takes on the experience - the area is worth exploring.
We round out our recent explorations of South Carolina (see 10 Best SC Places to Retire and Judith's Trip Report in the Blog) with your editor's recent visit to Kiawah and Seabrook Island. They sureare beautiful!
As part of our ongoing effort to keep our information current, we just updated 4 of our State Retirement Guides with the latest tax and home price info. The link goes to all of our guides (50 states plus 24 countries)
This, the smallest county in Colorado, had not been on our radar. But after we noticed that Topretirements has 5 active or 55+ communities listed here - clearly something is going on in Broomfield. Midway between Boulder and Denver, it has 66 miles of trails and 700 acres of parks.
There is always a fascinating array of different Comments to our various Blog articles. But unless you subscribe to our Daily Digest you might not ever see them.
