Knowing what kind of weather and scenery you want by your senior housing is easy. Finding it at a price that is acceptable to your retirement income? Not as easy. Here, we put together a list of the top 10 most affordable senior homes with a mountain view based on research from multiple areas!
Senior homes by the ocean are abundant, and usually come in the form of a resort. However, if you're more the independent time or just prefer the mountains to the beach, finding the ideal senior home might be challenging on a senior budget.
This top 10 list was decided upon by many factors. Soaking up the charm of a remote mountain town is priceless, but other important retirement-friendly factors like medical care, transportation, and affordable living were all thrown into the mix when sharing with you the top affordable senior homes in the mountains. Other than affordability, we looked at are the following:
* Access to skiing, trails, wildlife and other senior activities
* Senior home sale price
* Proximity to airports
* Proximity to medical care/senior benefits
* Public transportation
* Senior discounts
With these requirements in mind, after searching high and low (no mountain/valley pun intended) here is the list of the top 10 most affordable senior homes with a mountain view for your best place to retire:
1. Blacksburg, Virginia
2. Bend, Oregon
3. Boone, North Carolina
