These cities have been voted good retirement places, so I am thinking that since I feel like I am still young
in lower fifties, what amenities could I enjoy there. I would absolutely love self containment, meaning I don't have to drive over a mountain and thru the woods to get to a grocery store, or a gas station. I enjoy walking, biking, and an exciting thriving downtown, which I heard these places are. I would also like to be able to go to the library, maybe take aerobics thru the parks and recreation. Live in a fairly decent neighborhood. I know this is alot to ask for but if I could get a feel for these places I would appreciate it. I would really not have to run to say Asheville to do things. If anyone could jump in here that is familiar with the area please do so. Employment would not be an issue!
I know you wonderful and insightful people can help me out.
