Consider: health care, cost of living, English speaking, crime rate, warm weather, freedom.

I personally like San Felipe, Baja Norte, Mexico. The weather is perfect for me -- lots of sunshine, a very little rain and hardly ever cold. Whether you like the sea, the beach, the desert or the mountains it's all there. And you can own property there, not just lease it. We are currently building a house there -- we love it! The cost of living is lower than the U.S. There are so many Americans living there that the quality of services just gets better and better and that includes health care. The place we are building has it's own private security so crime is not a problem. Many people speak or at least understand English. It's very easy to communicate in the stores, etc. It seems we have even more freedom than in the U.S. because of fewer local ordinances and just plain annoying neighborhood and town stuff you have to deal with in the U.S. Try this website for more info: http://www.sanfelipe.com.mx/ The motto of San Felipe is "No Bad Days" -- I have spent a great deal of time there and I haven't had a bad day yet!

people communicate approximately Costa Rica for the decrease cost of residing. i might choose for between a place the place English is spoken (too old to learn a clean language) or France. Love being on a French vineyard, or alongside the coast. So enormously accessible. contemplate whether there are a number of English speaking enclaves. I even have acquaintances who retired in Mexico. THey stay on the sea and love the nutrients.

Australia and New Zealand seem to fit your criteria. If you're willing to give up warm weather and/or English speaking, I think there are a few countries worth considering in Europe.

I just read a few days ago in one of my Conde Nast Traveler magazines that many people are retiring to the Philippines because its so cheap to live there they can live richly. Philippinos speak English my best friend lives in Manila and she speaks pretty good English. You can buy a decent house in the Philippines anywhere from $50,000USD to $300,000USD. Yes $50,000! Which is unheard of here in the U.S. The article said that more people are starting to retire in the Philippines because Mexico is getting so expensive.

There is an area in Mexico where American retirees are moving for all the reasons you listed. I believe it's in the north west area of Mexico.
