After living in the USA, I’m considering where to settle down for retirement back home. I’m looking to invest around AUD 750k to 1 million in a house. Any suggestions on the best places to retire?

One thought on “Coming home from US where would you retire”

  1. That sounds like an exciting transition! With a budget of AUD 750k to 1 million, there are several great options for retirement in Australia. Here are a few places you might consider:

    1. Sunshine Coast, Queensland: Known for its beautiful beaches and relaxed lifestyle, the Sunshine Coast offers plenty of outdoor activities, great dining options, and a friendly community.

    2. Byron Bay, New South Wales: If you value a vibrant arts scene and stunning coastal views, Byron Bay could be perfect. It has a laid-back atmosphere and lots of opportunities for healthy living.

    3. Hobart, Tasmania: For a cooler climate and a rich cultural experience, Hobart is fantastic. It offers great food, stunning landscapes, and a slower pace of life.

    4. Adelaide, South Australia: This city is known for its affordability and quality of life. It has beautiful parks, a vibrant arts scene, and is close to great wine regions.

    5. Bendigo, Victoria: If you prefer a regional city, Bendigo has a rich history, a thriving arts community, and is just a couple of hours from Melbourne.

    6. Cairns, Queensland: If you’re looking for a tropical climate, Cairns offers access to the Great Barrier Reef and stunning natural beauty, along with a relaxed lifestyle.

    7. Margaret River, Western Australia: Known for its wine and beautiful scenery, the Margaret River region also offers a great community feel and outdoor activities.

    Consider what aspects are most important to you—whether it’s proximity to the beach, mountains, a city environment, or a quieter rural life. Visiting a few areas before making a decision can also help solidify your choice. Happy planning for your retirement!
