Is Boca Raton a good place to retire?

My wife and I are planning to retire in the next few years. We're considering Boca Raton because of the weather. The weather is great — warm most of the year with an average of 76F.

Cost of living looks pretty reasonable. How's the healthcare situation? Any retiree communities?

Public transit needs work but they're investing in it. Should improve in next few years.

Respectfully disagree about the cost of living assessment. In my experience, there are good opportunities if you network.

The food scene here is seriously underrated. So many great restaurants.

The job market has been improving lately. Several manufacturing companies moved in recently.

Downtown is overrated and overpriced. The suburbs offer way better value.

As someone who moved here from Phoenix, I can confirm most of this. The weather surprised me the most.
