Enjoy the Beautiful Outdoors and Treat Yourself To Locally Crafted Drinks

Are you looking for the perfect place to retire? Do you love outdoor activities, coffee, beer, wine, and a community that is all about being environmentally friendly? If you answered yes to some or all of these, then Oregon is the perfect match for you! This naturally stunning state has so much to offer and provides the ideal retirement for those that live an active lifestyle and want to maintain it throughout their retirement. In addition, living in Oregon has many other perks, including 0% sales tax, great farmers markets, and even a fantastic theater in honor of Shakespeare. Here are a few more reasons why Oregon 55+ communities are the best places to retire to:

Explore Natural Sites

Oregon has it all, whether it’s the coast, forest, desert, or even city life you are looking for. The state brings tourists from all over to attractions like “Goonie Rock” on Cannon Beach, and the Columbia River, which provides some of the best fishing in the United States. In addition, Oregon’s coast offers over 360 miles of picturesque coastal views and public beaches. Various beach towns are ready to be explored and are perfect for a soothing walk with the sand in your toes. In central Oregon, you can enjoy desert scenery and access some of the best hiking, biking, skiing, golfing, fishing, and boating in the state. Then, travel to Portland for endless entertainment, or Willamette Valley for Oregon’s wine valley. If you’re looking for a change in scenery, the options are limitless, and it’s time to explore.

Outdoor Recreation is Encouraged

Oregon is the ultimate destination for those that love the outdoors. With all of the beautiful scenery that Oregon offers, of course, outdoor activities are encouraged. Staying active is essential no matter your age, but especially later in life. So, if you have an outdoor hobby or want to try a new recreation, you can bring it to life in Oregon. Whether it’s biking, hiking, fishing, horseback riding, or canoeing, you can find a group to meet up with and connect with like-minded individuals.

Stay Social

Once you’ve had enough of the outdoors, be sure to visit one of the many festivals Oregon hosts, like Cherryfest, World Beat Festival, or Tigard Festival of Balloons. Of course, Oregon has many other events for all interests, including a rodeo, wood-carving, pumpkin regattas, and even whale watching. If you’re looking to connect with a friend, get together over a cup of locally brewed coffee at one of the 200 specialty coffee shops and micro-roasters around Oregon. Another fun outing with friends could be visiting Willamette Valley to discover Oregon’s wine scene. Still, if you prefer beer, you can always visit one of the 200 breweries in the state.
