oops, make that 10 not 100

Roswell blows but it's close to my favorite spaces in the country. 2nd choice would be Eau Claire for that Midwestern hominess.

The median home price in Omaha has risen a bit since then—to $ 113,044—but that's still an affordable price for most Americans. Plus, you won't have to travel far to attend the Berkshire Hathaway shareholders' meeting, known as "Woodstock for capitalists."

I really hope I'm still 30 years away from answering this question.

The Roswell zoo has a cow on display.

yeah i mean retirement is definitely a joke for me right now and i doubt it won't ever stop being one, but the whole concept is so weird to me in the first place that i don't care one way or the other right now.. that list doesn't help either, pretty depressing. idk, pittsburgh or san antonio might be ok places to do nothing in.

― I think no pants is sexy. (Matt P), Wednesday, 1 April 2009 23:09 (fifteen years ago) link

Pittsburgh sounds ok. San Antonio is huge ring of shit surrounding a pile of shit.

― tits akimbo (kenan), Wednesday, 1 April 2009 23:12 (fifteen years ago) link

why the hell would anyone want to retire to one of these places, is my question

― hello my name is peter francis geraci are you in debt (omar little), Wednesday, 1 April 2009 23:12 (fifteen years ago) link

i'm going to get a house in the middle of nowhere and just chill and read books

yeah that's otm, i'd move to a dilapidated ranch in southern utah before i moved to any of these places.

Beach on the Pacific side of Mexico.

But I say that now, and in 30 years I might say something totally different. Also, none of these places will make the list then.

― SORCEROUSES..roll on stage! (Pillbox), Monday, 13 April 2009 01:04 (fifteen years ago) link

San Antonio for sure. Eau Claire would be OK too, though winter is rough up there.

― kijiji, Monday, 13 April 2009 14:55 (fifteen years ago) link

pretty much all of these places have shit weather, ugh.

― quincie, Monday, 13 April 2009 15:56 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm going for Roswell.

― quincie, Monday, 13 April 2009 15:56 (fifteen years ago) link

im going with WI because the rest seem kind of horrifying
