TN, KY, AR... all have some great spots and can be affordable. Folks retired to TN almost 25 years ago and love it. Very tax friendly.

I'm partial to water. FL panhandle and Carolina and Georgia coast's have always appealed.

W Nebraska can be a great place.

Buy a used travel trailer and hit the road the next 4-6 months. See what ya see.
