4. Lexington, Kentucky
Another great southern spot to retire to is the Bluegrass State. As you’d expect, Kentucky holds plenty of appeal for bourbon aficionados and horse lovers. But seniors can pursue other interests here too.
Lexington has over 100 parks, a 734-acre nature preserve, more than 10 miles of hiking trails, and five public golf courses. For indoor entertainment, check out the many theaters and galleries, including the Lexington Opera House and its schedule of Broadway musicals, ballets, operas (of course), comedy shows, and other performances.
The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute provides numerous courses, interest groups, events, trips, and forums to people age 50 or older. While you’ll need to pay $35 for the annual membership, it’s worth giving it a try.
