Florida’s cities are some of the largest in the region, with the metropolitan area around the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area being the largest in the southeastern United States. Florida relocation is on the rise too, since so many of Florida’s cities are suffering from the depressed housing market. In 2008, Florida had the highest percentages of delinquent mortgages and foreclosures in the nation, making Florida much more inexpensive option than it once was. The senior citizen population is quite significant in Florida, and in a recent survey, over 80% of the senior citizens who responded said that they felt valued by others in their community. For all of these reasons and more, many seniors will continue to choose one of Florida’s cities for their retirement location.

If you are one of the many seniors planning a Florida relocation, then you will want to do some research to learn everything you can about Florida’s cities that you are considering. It may be helpful to start with information on the cities that have been ranked higher in lists on the best cities for retirement. For example, US News and World Report has created lists of the best places to retire by different characteristics, such as a list of the 10 brainiest, 10 low-cost, or 10 low-tax places to retire in the US. They also have lists such as the 10 best places to retire for single seniors, golf lovers, wine lovers, and many others. You can also create your own customized search tool on the site, based on characteristics like level of crime, cost of housing, etc.

Another resource for exploring Florida’s cities is to visit the city’s official website. There you can get information about the city’s amenities, events, taxation, and more. For example, if you were considering moving to Melbourne, relocation information you might want to know about is the level of health care available. A look at Melbourne’s website shows that a 62,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art medical complex is under construction right now. Or if you are thinking you might want to move to Tampa, relocation information you might care about is whether or not the city has a pedestrian-friendly downtown area. A quick view of Tampa’s website lets you know that the city is planning a river walk to revitalize the downtown waterfront and to create a place to enjoy for the citizens.

When you are deciding which of Florida’s cities will be right for you, there are some other questions you may want answers to, such as:

• What is the average crime rate in the city? What areas of the city are the safest? What areas should you avoid?
• What kinds of leisure and recreation activities are available nearby, and are they affordable? For example, if you have a boat, is there a marina with reasonable rates nearby?
• If you are planning to return to work, start a business, or invest in real estate, do the city’s statistics show that you’ll be able to achieve those goals?

Make your own list of questions and criteria, and then use it as a guide to choose which of Florida’s cities is right for you.

The best expat advice for South America comes from expats who already have experienced relocating to South America. You must ask yourself some important questions aside from the usual questions about expat living in South America, or choosing expat retirement destinations (especially if you are moving to South America with kids!) Don’t just ask “which are the best South American expat cities?” What is right for some may not be for you.

Many expats relocate or retire overseas for financial reasons. Simply, they want to save money. Others truly want to experience a different culture. Still others are married to people of another culture and want to learn about it.

If you are considering living abroad because you want to save money, you need to be sure you choose a country that can offer you a lifestyle with which you’ll be comfortable. Expat advice: if you’re not adventurous and are not motivated to learn about other cultures, you are better off seeking out a country where you can afford to live in a relatively similar manner as you do now. Many expats do want this and even hope to afford higher living standards than they currently enjoy.

Even if you do find a country that provides what you want, is similar to yours, and is affordable, you must ask yourself if you are willing to give up some of the things you enjoy (being near your family, speaking your own language, going to a church of your religion, etc.). Expat advice: don’t expect two countries to ever be the exactly the same, no matter how similar they may be. The only place you can live a US lifestyle, for example, is in the US. The only place like Australia is Australia.

If you really do want to learn about other cultures you’ll likely choose a country that is very different from your own, and do so on purpose. But is this truly the best decision for you? Are there things, people, ways of living, conveniences, standards, or anything else that you might end up missing so much you feel miserable? Some people think they can adjust to a very different culture only to find themselves trying to maintain the lifestyle they were accustomed to – and when unable to do so they regret their decisions. Expat advice: ask yourself if you are sure relocating is your best choice. Or should you consider touring each year instead?

If you’ve married someone from another culture fitting into their culture may be easier for you because you’ll have help. But does that mean you can get used to living in their country? Visiting their country and living in it can be very two completely different scenarios. Expat advice: sometimes love is not enough to get you through the changes. Your first commitment is, of course, to your spouse and you must be willing in any marriage to compromise and make some sacrifices. After all, your spouse is likely doing the same for you.

But there are other very real considerations you must both take into account such as the skills, language, and other abilities necessary to earn a living in that country. Unless your spouse will be the primary breadwinner and already has an employment contract, this is a necessary step to take. The technical term for you is “trailing spouse” and as the “follower” you must take this into consideration before you make a final decision (or agree with your spouse to a trial period). Expat advice: whether you are moving to please your spouse or because you truly are interested in living in their culture, you must be able to make a living or otherwise afford to live there. If you can’t, you’ll both end up miserable. If you have children take their needs into account as well.

If you’re looking to live exactly as you live now, you won’t find that anywhere other than where you live now. Expat advice: research employment options, housing availability, schools and the costs of educating your children, language skills needed, costs of living, living standards, hygiene standards, health care costs, medical facilities, the availability of any medications or treatments you need, the local cuisine and the cost and availability of your choice of foods, the costs and availability of phone and internet options, vehicles and transportation, documentation requirements, money transfer and banking options, work or driving permits and licenses, tax issues, and anything else you use in your daily life.

Make a list of what you, your spouse, and your children do each day. Then make a list of what you use when you do those things. Research costs and availability. For the things you won’t have available in your host country, ask yourself seriously: “Are we really willing to live without them? Really? Again, really?” Another way to approach this question would be: “If we change our minds once we’re in our host country, will we be able to return home and resume our lives?”

10 Questions Expats Must Ask Themselves

1. Why do we really want to move overseas? What is our primary motivation?
2. What lifestyle do we want overseas? And can we afford it? And is it possible or available in our host country of choice?
3. Will we be able to make a living in our new host country? Or is our retirement portfolio sufficient for this?
4. If things don’t work out or we change our minds, will we be able to return home and resume our lives? Will we be able to afford to move back? Once back will we be able to find employment again?
5. How does each member of the family feel about the move? The decision must be mutual between partners. Children won’t ultimately decide, but should be made to feel their opinions were taken into account, regardless of the final decision taken. Will our family truly benefit from relocating abroad?
6. Did we fully research housing, schooling, employment, transportation, healthcare, and everything else we’ll need overseas?
7. Could our family benefit from some additional preparation before relocating overseas such as language courses, culture transition coaching, or career coaching?
8. Does our family have a plan for repatriation in case of emergencies? And should this happen, could we afford it? And where would we return to?
9. Are there any options we should leave OPEN prior to moving? Would our employers take us back if we return, should we keep our business partially open until we’re certain, etc.
10. Are we truly willing to blend into local life, accept the things we are not accustomed to, and thrive despite the changes?

Expat advice: there is a big difference between living and thriving in your new home! Ask yourselves:
Do we want to live? Or do we want to thrive?
