I am actually struggle with the issues as I contemplate where I want to retire in 1-2 years. Thought of Pittsburgh, but it seems to be dying for all its amenities; thought of Chicago but concerned if taxes won't get worse although I love the walkability; now visiting Orlando, which is freeways and sprawl, which I don't think I want; considering Ft Lauderdale as well. Maybe I need to consider a place that Seattle or Denver, vibrant city cores that are still growing...don't know if I would like the winters though. Where I am at, DC, is very congested and super expensive, for all its great attributes (culture, walkability in DC proper and close in cities like Alexandria, and it is politics and politics, which I am certainly sick of....decisions, decisions...
