7 BEST US CITIES TO RETIRE TO




6. Miami

Miami is not about blue haired retirees lining up for today’s specials. It’s a melting pot of all ethnicities that mixes global trade capital with being an international tourism destination. Now for tourism, the Miami Zoo and aquarium is a big draw; but the beaches are what really attracts the people. The best beaches are the South Beach, Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park on Key Biscayne and 85th Street Beach. For diving, fishing and boating; the Biscayne National Park is the place to go.

If culture is what you’re after, then take a walk along Ocean Drive where the galleries are. The American Planning Association has named Ocean Drive one of America’s Great Streets. Also, The Miami City Ballet is internationally acclaimed as well as the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts. The downside to Miami is a high crime rate and the horrendous traffic congestion which makes carpooling very popular.
