Before moving here 12 yrs ago, we'd moved over 20X over the 50-something years. We said THIS would be the last move either before we left this earth OR if the kids moved us to a home. We went from 2K (give or take) sq. ft. house to one half it's size. It was hard to down-size but glad we did it. Our present house is a 3/2 and seemed just right when we purchased it. Sometimes we've thought "maybe" we should look into a 2/2 villa but the thought of gathering boxes and going all through the actual process almost makes me sick. So I think we'll stay put. That said, we know folks who've moved the rumored 3X here and we also know some who've moved more than that. I think it's because the lure of something new is always on their minds. For us---we're settled and satisfied.
