 I thought I'd explained it before. My wife's family lives there and
 she's spent most of her adult life in the states. Now that my parents
 have passed, it's important to me that we spend time withher parents
 while we can. We're interested in finding a village with a walkable
 high street as we retire, as keeping active is an important part of
 quality of life, and having a public transit system where you can get
 most anywhere without a car will be nice.

 I'm living on the California coast, bought when it was cheap(er) and
 have a 2.75% 30-year fixed mortgage. I've got it pretty good,
 comparatively.
