Washington's top of the list place to retire is Grandview.

After reading the CNN Money issue on the top 25 places to retire in the United States it hit me that Grandview had all that and better.  The ratings were based on average home price, population, education, and state income tax.  Bellingham was at the top with Western Washington University.  But, Grandview has the Lower Yakima Valley Community College and Vintecology Center.  Our population is lower, 8,377.  Our average house price is $139,000.  And the big one, No State Income Tax. 

Ok, so this information is for the people 59 and older that may be retiring soon.  What about the younger people that would like to retire earlier than their parents.  Why not buy your home and live were you want to retire.  And have your second home be your first home, and be paid off.  Didn't our parents say "work smart not hard."  To view all of my investment homes go to http://www.buyinwinecountry.com/
