How about Phoenix Arizona - it gets slightly cooler and warmer, but nice year-round

Arizona. It does get cooler than that during November thru February/March, but most of the year it's around 80 to 100. The further north you go, the cooler the temps. Don't do the Phoenix area as that is just too hot. And there's no where really to retire that I'd go to, but there are nice towns with the dry temps you're seeking.

What about Arizona or New Mexico? I live in Florida and it is humid and muggy most of the year. I am thinking of moving to New Mexico when I retire for many reasons, and weather is one of them. I have looked into it and I think it will be a nice change and a good location to call my home base.

Arizona is the best

My friend has been to Greece and she says it's beautiful; we plan to retire there some day. The weather there is pretty much like California year round and the properties are still cheap even those by the beach. The people are very pleasant and fun-loving, you won't have a problem integrating into their culture. Good luck and happy retirement!

Nevada or Arizona, Arizona is best. Nevada is more FUN! but niether have a steady temp in that range. They sorta do, but it can get HOT or COLD whever you are at above 30d Lattitude.

New Mexico, Utah, Nevada, or West Texas

Nevada is the dryest state in the US

I grew up in Arizona which can be unbearable in Phoenix, but some northern cities like Sedona are some of the most beautiful in the world. Sedona is amazing with its red rocks and fun cultural, but small, community.

fairly smart

Arizona or New Mexico...

Check out the island of Aruba.

It is a desert climat (average temp is about 90 degrees year round) but the trade winds keep it comfortable.

Sounds like you need the desert area between So Cal and Arizona. There really are a lot of great areas to rent and you are still close enough to take advantage of all the great things we have. I don't think I could ever leave this place.

Anyone who says Arizona or Nevada is NUTS!
I have lived in both during the hot season and the average temperature is 117 degrees. Nice in the fall and winter, but that is it!

We live in Ruidoso New Mexico. Summer temperatures average 80. Sunshine 333 days a year. If it snows in the winter it usually melts within a couple of days. Cold nights and mild days in the winter.

No humidity...no mosquitos...no pesky bugs like fleas and ticks.

We keep talking about moving back to New England until we think of the wind chill factors, humidity, stick hot and bitter cold.

Definately New Mexico....

If you want more desert, Las Cruces does not get as hot as Nev or Ariz
It is warmer year round than Ruidoso.
I am not a desert person because I hate snakes and desert creatures.

The Baja desert is a good choice
You have to move closer to the Ecuator.
I'm also thinking Central America because is pretty.
Nicaragua has some nice colonial towns. Granada and Leon.
The weather is a little dry, drier in Leon, but Granada is still nice.
I prefer Granada.

other nice cities in Central and South America are more humid because of the proximity to the ocean and the forrest.
you can also try India or Africa

If you want to stay in California, Temecula is nice year round.
Arizona and New Mexico are too cold in the winter for someone that has lived in southern california.

Perhaps Arizona would be nice, however, it might get a little too warm for you in the summer months. Otherwise it's always nice and it's dry heat! Good Luck finding the right place for you.

I currently live in Sierra Vista, AZ. I can not stand the heat and I love it here. It is not hot like the rest of Arizona, it sits right at the base of the mountains and hottest month is July and it only got to 95 degrees this summer which they said was an unusual year. The only down fall is the monsoon season, but I think it is a beautiful time of year. It spans August and the first of Sept. It would be the hottest time of the year except just as it starts to get hot, it rains. The desert is beautiful during monsoon season. It is not like Tuscon or Phoenix, it does not ever get above 100 degrees and the winter is very mild. It is going to be 72 today and sunny. Good luck finding the perfect place
