For at least two years we have been talking to our friends about how we'd like to maybe move back to Bloomington, Indiana, where we went to college. Many of them just don't get it, so we were glad to see that there's a website --
College Town Life -- that's dedicated to celebrating life in these great towns. What's more,
Kiplinger's May 2007 issue features an article on why college towns are perfect for boomers about to retire, or in "pre-retirement" -- like us geezers. According to Kiplinger's:
"Nothing matches the vibe of a college town. Universities throw off an energy that infuses their communities with culture, creativity and a love of learning. No wonder such places draw so many retirees. Living in a college town can be a smart financial move, too. Compared with life in a big city, you'll save on everything from housing to recreation."
Yeah, we knew that.
