Carson City has been selected as a top retirement destination by Where to Retire, the only magazine in America geared toward helping people with retirement relocation decisions. The city and nearby Carson Valley are profiled in the March/April 2017 issue, available nationwide on Feb. 14.
Where to Retire Editor Annette Fuller said the Carson City area possesses qualities important to today’s retirees.
“West-central Nevada is drawing many retirees who have figured out that this area, graced by the Sierra Nevada and low taxes, has lots of lures. Another is its proximity to tech hub Reno and vacationland Lake Tahoe. Carson City, the thriving state capital, is just north of Carson Valley with its three charming cities: Gardnerville, Minden and Genoa,” Fuller said.
Each year, 700,000 Americans relocate to new towns to retire. Generally, relocating retirees are healthier, better educated and more affluent than those who choose to not relocate. They bring significant economic benefits to their new states and hometowns. Nationally, two dozen states and hundreds of towns seek to attract retirees as a source of economic development.
Where to Retire magazine, now celebrating the 25th year of helping its readers find the ideal place to retire, is published six times a year. The magazine covers the best retirement regions, towns and master-planned communities, and has a national circulation of 200,000.
The magazine is sold on various newsstands and at Barnes & Noble bookstores. A one-year subscription to Where to Retire is $18 (a 49 percent savings from the newsstand price).
