Retirement these days is a whole new ball game. Today's baby boomers with higher education levels, bigger bank accounts, and longer, healthier lives ahead of them, are seeking a more active retirement than that of their parents' generation. It can be a time of growth, or adventure, or complete and utter relaxation. Where people spend their retirement years, no matter how they define them, has to be a place that fulfills their desires and meets their changing needs. Many people use travel as a means to find their ideal retirement community. This book is written to serve not only as a travel guide but also as an indispensable, authoritative overview of the destination from the perspective of relocation. Choose Costa Rica has many cities, towns, and villages that are ideal for retirees of every stripe. Descriptions of scenic, vibrant places, as well as information about the resources and activities available in these areas, allow readers to make an informed decision about selecting Costa Rica as the ideal location to enjoy an affordable, active, and safe retirement.
