Cathedral City Named Among Top 10 Affordable Retirement Spots
Cathedral City was named one of America’s Top 10 Bargain Retirement Spots by US News & World Report.
The magazine’s latest issue ranks everything from colleges to banking. Writers assessed affordable home prices and accessibility to activities for retirement living throughout the United States. They noted Cathedral City’s affordable home prices, warm climate and proximity to Desert attractions and outdoor activities like golf.
“This is great news,” said Mayor Kathleen J. De Rosa. “Cathedral City is an affordable gem right here in the midst of the Coachella Valley – not to mention the Western United States.”
Cathedral City was the only city ranked in California, and other than Portland, Oregon and Tucson, Arizona, the only city in the Western United States to make the list.
The Top 10 Bargain Retirement Spots (in no particular order) are: Portland, OR; Tallahassee, FL; Wake Forest, NC; Cathedral City, CA; Wahiawa, HI; Weatherford, Texas; Dover, DE; Sycamore, IL; and St. Charles, MD.
