Retirement Community
-
9/7/2013
This city is quickly becoming a retirement community for the rich. There are so many retirees moving here and paying cash for everything, that it is driving the local cost of living up, yet the local wages and job opportunities can't keep up. The traffic is horrible due to all of the Canadians coming down to shop, and if you have something you need to get from the store on a weekend you had better plan on spending at least an hour at the store because of crowds and lines. The local Costco has even had to hire police officers to monitor the parking lot due to fights over parking spots.
