    Retiring to Myrtle Beach — What Nobody Tells You Until After You Move

    Live Bigg. Move Smart. Coast Easy. Everybody talks about the beach, weather, golf and taxes when they talk about retiring to Myrtle Beach. But those aren't always the decisions that determine whether you'll actually love living here. In Episode 32 of Living Bigg in Myrtle Beach, we're talking about the things retirees should think about before choosing a home: 55+ communities, true monthly housing costs, insurance, taxes, healthcare, maintenance, and whether the house you love today will still fit your life 10 or 15 years from now. Because retirement isn't just about finding a house near the beach. It's about figuring out what you want an ordinary Tuesday to look like.
