Finding the best places
Writing by Rich on February 20, 2007
Welcome to TheBestPlaces.info, where we will explore the best places to live, work and play.
This is a personal journey for my family — we’re looking for places where we may ultimately want to relocate. I’m hoping for an early semi-retirement; my wife will be wanting a place where she can put her therapist skills to work.
We’re starting out with a love of the southwest, so that’s the locus for the search. Criteria we’ll be looking at include climate, outdoor recreation opportunities, licensing requirements for my wife, housing values, quality of schools, etc.
Currently, we’re living in an isolated corner of Northern California. It’s 1-1/2 hours just to the nearest Wal-Mart! Our typical shopping trip, for anything other than groceries, is a two-hour drive to a city with a Costco, Trader Joes, etc. Airline travel is a major hassle, starting and ending with a three-hour drive, so our criteria will include distance to major metropolitan airports and other components of an “isolation factor.”
We like our small town, but we’re open to city life too. So stick around. I’ll be getting to the criteria and a list of possible locations very shortly.
