If you consider yourself a baby boomer the chances are that your parents retired in the community where they spent most of their lives. After all that is the place they knew best, where they had the most connections, and where they kept a crucial sense of place. Only a very small minority of retirees of that generation, far less than 10%, took the significant step of moving somewhere else for retirement. Some moved across town to a smaller place, a few moved permanently to a vacation home or somewhere else within the state, and a much smaller and adventurous group moved to a different state, or even out of the country.
