The Best Regions in the World for Retirement 2025
-
As a single woman, I am looking for safe locations to move to that will stretch my dollars. I am looking for strong expat communities for singles, if possible. I prefer to rent, as this will be my first time living outside of the US. Willing to go car-free. Also concerned about Panama.
i am a single woman who has lived in Ajijic on Lake Chapala in Mexico for 14 years. Being in the mountains at approximately 5000' our weather is pretty much perfect year round. There's a large expat community so you can get by with very little Spanish. There's tons to do and it's easy to meet people.
It's not as cheap as it used to be (where is?) but your dollar will go way further than in Canada or the US. There are plenty of people who rent year round and rental agents are happy to work with you to find a place "Lakeside". -

I'm also a single woman and want to go to a safe place. I'd love to have the opportunity to be with expats but at the same time I'd love to be able to meet and friend the locals as well. I'm retired, speak English, Spanish and some French.

Whether you envision mornings on a Mediterranean coast, afternoons exploring colonial towns, or evenings in the crisp mountain air, these regions represent the very best of what their countries have to offer. With input from on-the-ground correspondents and local expats, we’ve highlighted the neighborhoods, cities, and rural retreats that promise an unparalleled retirement experience in 2025.
Our full report points to 20 regions... on our workshop here, we’ve chosen a selection of them to focus on. Joining host Jennifer Stevens will be Bel Woodhouse, IL’s Mexico Correspondent; Tuula Rampont, IL’s France Correspondent; Bart Walters, IL’s Thailand Contributor; Terry Coles, IL’s Portugal Contributor; and Jessica Ramesch, IL’s Panama Editor.
