• This Sunny Lake Town Is One of the Best Places to Retire on $2,500 a Month in the U.S., According to a New Study (travelandleisure.com) — Lake Havasu City is being spotlighted nationally as a top place to retire on about $2,500 a month, thanks to relatively manageable housing costs and Arizona’s retiree-friendly tax structure. The report also praises the city’s lakefront recreation, parks, arts scene, and proximity to Phoenix and Las Vegas, noting a growing retiree population and housing trends favoring smaller, easier-to-maintain homes.
