The most attractive feature of this area is, of course, the mild winters and being a rural area, the taxes are low. However, unless you can afford the high price of a senior community, there is nothing here for the local seniors. There are no 'community' senior centers, there is zero public transportation, part-time jobs for seniors are few and employees are driven to perform well beyond what would be considered reasonable.
