I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.

I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes.

Northern Virginia is an area that residents of the remainder of the state try to avoid. The "DC blight" is spreading southward, so central and western Virginia are much more attractive to retirees. For example "World According To Briggs" rates Amherst, Va as the number one rural town for retirees!

The market's direction can swiftly change, with indexes frequently transitioning from a bear market to a bull market precisely when the news is most negative and investor sentiment reaches its lowest point. I came across an article highlighting individuals who achieved profits of up to $150,000 during challenging market periods. Considering this, I am curious about the best stocks to purchase now or add to a watchlist.

I thought this was best places in VA for retirees! Why is it so focused on expensive places and the median incomes? Retirement for most means NOT working!

I live in Leesburg, its not cheap, $382,000 will buy you a very small condo that likely needs some renovations, my 2000sq ft townhouse goes for about $650,000. If you want a similar very walkable historic town that is cheaper, look at Staunton and Lexington.

This list is odd. Chantilly? Falls church? You’ll need at least a half million to buy anything, and you’d be spending more time in a rat race and traffic than relaxing.

This a joke. I will agree with Williamsburg, Leesburg, and Bon Air. But the rest of them make laugh. Charlottesville, Short Pump and Fredericksburg should be on the list.

Why are all 10 places in either Northern VA or the eastern part of the state? This seems very biased.

Clearly the judges never explored any other areas other than Northern Virginia, which is essentially Washington (SWAMP) D.C and Richmond (the Capital). Great seafood (crabbing, fishing and oysters) in Virginia. Great parks to explore and be with Mother nature. The small towns are very quaint and beautiful. Not a fan of any of the Northern locations which were designated 'BEST". Virginia Beach isn't bad but I think its a bit overrated.

This is more like, Top 10 best places to retire in Virginia if you're a millionaire. Can we talk crime rates, too, and how far over the national average the entire Hampton Roads area is? Who paid this guy to make this? I get that it's a year old, but even a year ago rents were ridiculous here.

I personally like the Upper Neck area. We recently bought waterfront property there and it was so much cheaper than other areas around VA and MD. Going to build our retirement home there, looking over the Rappahannock river. Can't wait!

i wonder why southern VA is never mentioned? like danvill or south boston or chatham or blairs?

Also Bon Air is still part of the Richmond Metro.

l like the scenes of NYC, might as well tossed in Rio and Rome.

Have you ever been to Virginia? This video is very disappointing, contradictory sentences, inaccuracies, and the locations recommended are too expensive for retirees unless they are millionaires. I won't bother watching any more.

I not going to lie I first came to Virginia when I met my wife there 3 years ago in McLean Virginia and I fell in love with it because it is so beautiful their, but it is expensive compared to where I am from it dose have lower taxes compared to western New York I love I go back and forth every month to see my in-laws they live in McLean Virginia so I have seen a lot of Fairfax VA fall's church VA and Arlington VA and Reston VA we have a condo in Lake Anna and many house though out these area's i mentioned I am thank full for the life I have now...

Virginia is the ONLY southern state with a coast on the Atlantic Ocean?

At 13:18-19, that photo is Merchant Street in Decatur, IL.

Retire to NoVa? Are you kidding me? if you're a multi-millionaire! Otherwise you need to go South. You need to stay North of Richmond, South of NoVA, and not near Hampton Roads. Look up where there are hospitals. Charlottesville has good hospitals but you can't afford there either.

Nature and parks in Campbell County, Hurt and Rustburg, Va PLUS, it’s not expensive to live!! Our 5bdrm 3 bath house was 169k a few years ago. Great for retirement 😉

Probably real estate funded

Sure no love for western Va.Id rather live here than northern VA anytime

This list sucks! It should be about retiring but all the places on the require a high income!

Hanover is a good place to live. Good schools.

Definitely love Loudon and Fairfax county, but it’s very expensive to live in these area . I don’t care much for Arlington or Lorton.

Virginia is not the only southern state with coastal beaches. What happened to the Carolinas, both are very southern states and have beautiful beaches and let’s not forget Georgia.

52 colleges and universities in Vienna VA? 12:35. I think he has never been in Vienna VA or is confusing it Boston or Wash DC. Vienna is another suburb of the DC metro area where housing is expensive like anywhere around DC. Also, Mt Vernon, Arlington National Cemetery are close but not part of Falls Church!

Totally failed here!! Aptly named, “Nowhere” because as a resident of Northern VA for 22 years, I know that NO WHERE, in ANY of these places named, could anyone afford to retire. And Loudoun is NOT pronounced “Lambton”, lol! And Vienna does have 2 ‘n’s. Geeezzz!!

I thought this was supposed to be about best Virginia cities to retire to; none of those cities is for people on retirement incomes, nor does it talk about medical facilities in the area.

This video does NOT represent Virginia very well at all. I have lived here 50 years, and yes, its an great state, but the places listed are mostly ones I try to avoid. BTW Viena is spelled Vienna - but who doesnt have spelling failures sometimes. Finnaly, somewhere I can agree is a cool little town, and quite the hip hot spot for adults in Northern VA (Leesburg)

My mom & Dad were at work so I peddled my bicycle 🚴 to the Hopewell City police department and They questioned me and called my Dad at work and he came and picked me up. I was 10 year's old when THIS happened. I called the police station that handle my case year's LATER and they said AFTER 10 year's we throw away the Case. So I've always wondered if they ever caught THIS child molester or murderer or ECT ECT ECT.😲🙄🤨🤔

I’ve lived in VB for 45 years and love it. Great public schools, beautiful clean beaches, and great restaurants. A lot of people retire here.

Videos lose so much credibility when they can't pronounce places or bother to spell city names right. Vienna has two n's. Loudoun County is pronounced 'L 'ow'(as in ouch)dun' county. Sheesh. Otherwise, not bad. How is Blacksburg not on this list?

This is insane. Nobody can afford to retire in NOVA unless they got some fat government contractor retirement program. And as one who lives in VA, Bon Air??? It’s not a city nor a county. There is little there unless you can afford to live on the River for. Million an acre. And Richmond?? Crime central and crappy schools unless you are again one of those Uber rich that can afford private schools. Virginia is no longer the place it once was.

FIRS of all--- when looking for the "best place to live"--- AVOID ALL CITIES-- in ANY states.. only fools like and focus on cities.. they're OUTDATED messes... too much can be done FROM HOME -- allowing one to live wherever you like- and AVOID the TRASH that is all cities.. (if you hadn't noticed-- I HATE cities).. As to having plenty to do-- I find MUCH more to do OUT of cities than in-- as I hate bars, clubs, and most group stuff in cities.. so get OUT of cities.. PERIOD. oh- and if that comment pisses you off--- TOUGH.
