Leander, Texas
Leander, Texas, could be the perfect retirement spot for those who want the coziness of a small but growing town while not located too far from a metropole. According to the Census Bureau data, Leander’s population has grown by 12% over the past year. In 2019, it boasted 62,608. This sort of influx points to a rise in opportunity for many people, meaning you don’t have to worry about life here stagnating.
As hinted at earlier, Austin is close by if you feel the need for a little diversity in your activities, but otherwise, there is plenty to do in Leander. Are you a fan of golf? Why not experience a round or two at the Crystal Falls Golf Club. If you prefer to explore the outdoors then we highly recommend the Texas Hill Country at the Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge.
It’s also a great place for retirees in terms of events, as the city proudly organizes hikes, museum visits, river cruises, and wine tasting, among others, for those aged 55 or older.
For a great retirement destination look no further than the fastest-growing small city in the nation, Leander!

Check the weather before moving here
A lot of the suggestions are cities that are known not to be very receptive to people of color. It would be nice if your collection would expound upon that and offer suggestions that would keep such factors in mind.
Thanks for your comments. Do you have recommendations that take that into consideration?
No one would be safe there let’s be realistic. That’s why people of color run to predominantly white areas because where peaceful people.
Most of these cities are in warmer climates. That makes sense. I see recommendations for people to move to Vermont or something where they’d be trapped indoors half the year or more. Not every retired person dreams of show-shoeing or skiing. It’s a lot easier to stay active when you can actually get out and do things.
Someone needs to explain to you people what a “small” town is. A town with 70000+ people is not a small town.
Does it have quality medical, dental, VA and grocery stores?
I take it that this doesn’t include assisted living facilities. As I could use one that doesn’t cost more than my SSI monthly stipend.
