This is an over generalization, but has truth in it.  I use almost no ketchup now, wasn't the case when I was 10.

This is why beer tastes awful the first time most folks try it.
Well if you don't put ketchup on a dog why put it in your beer? Some people's kids,sheesh

I think at best such rankings could provide useful information on criteria one might consider for a retirement location.  Maybe you didn't know the income tax situation on retiree income in certain states for example.  (I hadn't considered ATL initially because I didn't know about this.)

CoL figures can be useful.  Watchouts can be useful.

Find Apartments for Rent and Rentals - Get Your Walk Score

Another ranking, walk score.  While this obviously is going to be variable depending, I personally think a fairly high score is important for a retirement location because as we age, walking becomes a primary form of exercise and getting out and about.

My wife and I do more than walk, but we walk quite a bit as well, and as we age, that could become the main thing for us.

I've never had it, but can't imagine liking it.

We do have an Oskar Blues brewery here in Austin, perhaps I'll try it someday.

Yeah, we could manage without a car, renting one on occasion.  Hopefully the clutch lasts a while ...

We could not manage without a car. It's 8 miles to the grocery store or gas station. 12 miles to CVS.
