retirement relocation

Residential mobility among Americans, especially retirees, is on the decline, with most preferring to stay put. This trend, ongoing since the 1980s, suggests a deeper sense of being ‘stuck’ in current circumstances, affecting happiness and life satisfaction. Understanding this shift is crucial for addressing its cultural and psychological impacts. Encouraging greater mobility can foster personal renewal, optimism, and social adaptability, leading to enriched life experiences and greater personal growth.
