Adirondacks featured in Where to Retire magazine

HOUSTON, TEXAS — The Adirondacks has been selected a top retirement destination by Where to Retire, the only magazine in America geared toward helping people with retirement relocation decisions. The area is one of eight profiled in a feature titled "8 Tempting Tourist Towns" in the July/August 2015 issue, available nationwide on June 16, 2015. Where to Retire Editor Annette Fuller said these eight cities or areas, including the Adirondacks, appeal to retirees who enjoy the amenities afforded by tourist towns. "Once you become an in-the-know local, retiring to a tourist destination becomes a never-ending vacation," Fuller said. "Spectacular mountains, beaches and lakes — as well as easy access to skiing, fishing, boating and state and national parks — are expected in these areas. What's surprising is how enjoyable the less-visited months can be. To cope with the crowds during high season, residents quickly learn the back roads and find off-the-beaten-path eateries and entertainment." 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 launched in 1992 with the goal 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 39 percent savings from the newsstand price).
