The newly released 2010 Del Webb Baby Boomer survey, conducted by Harris Interactive for Pulte/Del Webb, found that 42 percent of today's 50-year-olds plan to move during retirement. The researchers found the Carolinas are now considered "the new Florida" among young and older boomers: 20 percent preferred South Carolina, while 16 percent favored North Carolina.

South Carolina is #3 and closing fast on #2 Arizona! (#1 being Florida.)

I have seriously been considering moving into a 55+ community in South Carolina (I'll be 53 in May and due to my back injury, I am semi-retired.)

South Carolina gives great tax incentives for retirees. They know they have a steady stream of income, (Pensions + Social Security.) Which leaves a lot of discretionary spending. (Most homes are either paid for or close to being paid for.) Retirees don't use the schools, at least not the lower schools (A lot take college courses.) Don't drive as much, so vehicle taxes are lower for them.)

There is a reason that Ft Mill & Rock Hill are leading the way at retirement communitities. Close to the action in Charlotte, and they are self contained towns.

Keep in mind, Mick Jagger will be 67! Paul Mcartney will be 68!

    • Exactly He's played two seasons and started 28 games. He's well beyond the point of being able to point to 2 or 3 games and being able to say, "THAT is the QB he is and will be in the future" Of course he can get there, but anyone trying to use just those couple of games to rank his place amongst the games QB's today and their full career's worth of playing at that level, is just asinine. Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Burrow, Hurts, Herbert, Daniels, Stafford, Goff, Geno, Purdy, Baker, Love, Dak, Tua, Kyler, Lawrence That's 17 QB's right there that have played better over their careers than Bryce has played at his best.  And I'm not saying they're all studs or guys I'd want to be our QB moving forward, Tua for example I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole, but his body of work is a million times better than Bryce's has been. It's also not including any of the other QB's drafted in 2023/2024 other than Daniels. So again, say you believe in Bryce, say you think he's going to prove he can and should be our QB of the future, that's all fair and totally fine. But nobody can say he's been an above average QB in his career thus far, it's just an asinine notion.
    • I'd think we could get one of those from Dallas for... whatever.
