Go look in east Texas. Depends on how small a town you want but in Huntsville they have stores and restaurants and a fine university (and prisons). My daughter has been going to college there for four years and she loves it. people go camping and hunting and fishing in thick woods 15 miles out of town. The only Indian reservation in Texas is about 50 miles away in what is called "The Big Thicket" That is one of the most wonderful wilderness areas in Texas. Look up http://www.nps.gov/bith

Austin is a great area, but taxes are VERY high all over TX. More than 5 times as much as I'm paying in MO. Texans like to brag about having no income tax -- but it's not such a great deal actually when you take property taxes and high sales taxes into consideration.

I think they can file for tax exempt if they are 65+.
