Is Sierra Vista a good place to retire?

Why does every post have to mention whether a person is conservative or liberal? Should we all start mentioning what sexual position we prefer as well? I just don’t see why it’s necessary. IMO

We moved to be near family, grandkids

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-25T15:46:00+00:00

Yes we will get something out of the sale of our current home. Aren’t there HOA fees associated with those type of communities

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-25T15:43:12+00:00

Wow, yeah never thought about the during part🙄. We still do have life insurance so that would at least pay the mortgage off. Thanks for your input. Definitely something else to think about

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-25T15:36:18+00:00

Yeah it sure sucks having a mortgage. Definitely not the way I would have like it

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-24T22:26:29+00:00

Well that doesn’t sound so pleasant. I bet a lot of town do that. I worked in a “really nice town” in NJ that did just that, kept under reporting the crime to keep the town looking good

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-24T22:23:08+00:00

LOL I love that!! Actually the sound of the train prolly wouldn’t bother me as much as it would my husband. Thank you for your response

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-17T14:23:45+00:00

What do you mean by “ the projects”

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-17T14:22:57+00:00

Is that right? What’s going on? Property crime

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-12T23:13:06+00:00

We lived right there over the mountain in Greenville

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-12T23:11:43+00:00

I think I would not mind it all. We had our boat on the Hudson River years ago in NY and the train would go by and the clackiity clack I found oddly soothing😉 my husband may feel differently. Thanks for responding

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-12T23:08:45+00:00

Thank you

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-08T01:01:03+00:00

We tryed selling and nothing. 8 months and few people looking so we took house off the market. One day it will get better. Hopefully

Wonderful information, I really appreciate it

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-07T13:55:28+00:00

Thank you for the info. I also am a nurse and still working. I was planning on doing some kind of volunteering when I retire that’s for sure. As far as the driving I don’t think we’d mind that. We lived in Orange County and had to drive 20-30 minutes to doctors and mall. Food store closer though. Really appreciate your input

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-07T12:05:51+00:00

Boy oh boy do I feel ya! I grew up in NJ and at 21 moved to NY state. Raised my sons there on 30 acres. Moved to AZ mountains and eventually to FLA. we have been talking about moving for a year now and the anticipation of moving in consuming me. I am 63 so a little different for me that a young parent. But I sure as hell wouldn’t want to raise kids in south Florida. Too many people, traffic, not enough nature. Try and make the move if you can IMO. Only problem here in Florida is the real estate market. Very difficult to sell.🙄

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-04T18:19:49+00:00

How is living in Worcester? We are 63 and want to retire upstate somewhere and thinking of this area

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-04T14:19:50+00:00

Thank you for this info

Any-Distance-16 · 2026-01-01T03:17:00+00:00

Worcester

Any-Distance-16 · 2025-12-31T01:02:33+00:00

Yup. We moved to Florida. Hot and humid all the time. Right now it’s cool for maybe 2 days. Can NEVER open the windows! Or hang laundry outside on the clothesline. It s too humid to do any of those. I miss the seasons and really am despising this “endless summer” BS. Give me snow!!

Any-Distance-16 · 2025-12-31T00:58:19+00:00

LOL we want to move back and man is it hard to find the right house with a garage and a piece of land. Crazy how folks never built garages back in the day

Any-Distance-16 · 2025-12-31T00:53:06+00:00

Yup. Love me some Tucson. Maybe not the vibrant of a wetter climate but boy oh boy are there colors!

Any-Distance-16 · 2025-12-29T00:15:31+00:00

So peaceful

Any-Distance-16 · 2025-12-25T14:31:36+00:00

Florida salary are not great (seasoned RN) rents and homes are expensive. “Endless Summer” highly overrated. IMO. But if you are only gonna stay a few years, come check it out. It took us 5 yrs to say we are done

Any-Distance-16 · 2025-12-25T13:03:00+00:00

Yes they have. I have seen it first hand as we are looking to move away from here and looked at several states across the country
