Re: Proportion of full time, part time, and rentals
The other retirement location we are considering is a condo we already own in Brevard, NC. My concern about that location is that most of our neighbors head south for a good part of the year, mostly in the winter. Some only stay for a few months. (They obviously have more money for retirement than we do.) Not that we wouldn't enjoy the peace and quiet of having the place mostly to ourselves, but we wouldn't want a ghost town neighborhood, either.
I think we would enjoy a fully occupied neighborhood - it provides a better sense of community and neighborliness.
