When looking for a laid-back location to settle into your sunset years, Florida usually jumps to the top of the list.
Swaying palm trees and plenty of warm sunshine also keeps Florida as a consistent top choice amongst retirees.
However, if you prefer a more crisp climate but still crave those seaside strolls, then consider a move to New England — specifically, Rhode Island.
Wedged in the southwestern corner of the state, abutting the border with Connecticut, is a delightful town called Westerly.
Included in a roundup of best Rhode Island retirement spots in terms of affordability by Movoto, a real estate search engine, Westerly is a top-rated escape for both retirees and travelers.
