At 55Places.com we encourage questions from our readers. Here is a recent question we received from John B. of Ohio:
Q: We are looking for a waterfront community with boat access in east Tennessee or the surrounding area. We would prefer to stay around $200,000 or under.
A: Tennessee is a beautiful place to live, and the cost of living is about 10% below the national average, which makes it a great retirement location as well. Though there are few age-restricted active adult communities in the East Tennessee region, there are many communities that are ideal for retirees. We did some research on the area and have found a few options that meet your specific criteria.
