My husband wants to move to a more tax-friendly state when we retire, quite a few years from now. I don’t want to move because I like my community and will really miss my friends (our state also has excellent hospitals and medical advances).
Our D (junior in college) is quite emotionally attached to our home and our community. She has organized get-together at Thanksgiving with her high school friends every year. They all love seeing one another when they can. It’s likely that we will move to be near her wherever she gets a job/have a family.
Every family’s decision is different based on what is important to the family members. All the best with your plan.
