Abruzzo or Marche Expat Community
-
My husband and I are visiting Abruzzo & Marche this May to begin researching 7% towns for eventual retirement. We would like to be in a community/village that has some Expats… does anyone know of Abruzzo or Marche 7% towns with Expat communities? Ideally the town would be a Borghi Pui Belli. The towns we are visiting in May are Sulmona, Caramanico Terme, Penne, Campli and Offida.

Hi Sandra, it is interesting that you should ask this question at this time. My suggestion would be that you take a look in Le Marche at towns close to Ascoli Piceno. Ascoli is not a 7% town as it is too big witih just over 46k people. It does have a small expat community. We are going there to explore the town today, and have an appointment to speak with an expat who lives there. I can send you a list of the towns in Le Marche that qualify. Please write me at info@thelaughingretirement.com and I will send you list. If you find one of the town closes to Ascoli, you will have a great place to start. I wish you well on your journey.

My name is Steve. I look forward to reading some of your notes. I'm nearly ready to retire in Marche. Anywhere in Marche. Chip knows many things. I talked with Mister Chips several times at those IL conferences, and by way of email. You might want to follow his lead. That's my plan.
