I'm retiring. I'm stuck in Texas for about 5 years because my kids started college and I want to be here. However, I'm in the burbs and I don't want to be the older retired guy living in the burbs around young couples with youngsters.
I've had friends move to Fort Worth. But here is my question. If I wanted to stay in the metroplex, probably want a house or condo in the 700k +\- 100k range, I don't want to be on a bad area of course, but where would you move? What part of the metroplex would you move to?
What do you want to have easy access to? What places do you like to go that you wouldn't want to be too far away from (in miles or time, taking traffic and growth patterns into account)? Do you want an urban environment, small town, or rural? What I might be interested in might not be what you're interested in, so it would help to know more about your particulars.

Maybe you can give us some examples of places that appeal to you, but perhaps they are off the list for one reason or another. Personally, I want to stay right where I am, but I put a premium on being near family, which if they all moved away I would likely follow them.
