Virginia Beach, VA is the top big city for veterans |
Retired military veterans may relocate to cities where they
were once stationed because the city was welcoming to them and offered great services.
This is, in part, why San Antonio , Texas , Virginia Beach , Virginia and Colorado
Springs , Colorado are
so favorable to vets.
Mid-sized cities are also good choices. Alexandria
and Arlington , Virginia are the top two mid-sized cities to
consider when military retirement is near. Centennial, Colorado is third.
City View looks at some of the other factors to consider
before relocating to a new city
after military retirement: housing costs, crime, schools for children,
inexpensive events to attend, higher number of federal and non-federal jobs,
low unemployment rate, and livability. Some cities have great public
transportation systems which can lower the cost of owning and maintaining a
vehicle. Some are located near areas where residents can take advantage of
nearby attractions. There are so many great places to life if one is a retired
service member or about to retire. Explore the top five in each category at the jump.
