Coming Home

How good are you in bringing back home your retirees? A new book, Retirement Migration in America by Dr. Charles F. Longino, Jr. due out in July, explores the issue.

Longino found that the best states for bringing back retirees are FL (54%); NC (51%); SC (48%); GA (46%) and UT (45%). The worst were DC (5%); WY (13%); ND (14%); NE (18%) and SD (19%).

How many former residents could you entice back home to retire? What impact could they have upon your community?
