Is South Jersey a good place to retire?
By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®
Yes, South Jersey is an excellent place to retire. The cost of living is lower than many northeastern retirement destinations, and property taxes in Burlington County are among the lowest in New Jersey. There are numerous active adult communities, good healthcare access through Virtua and Cooper health systems, and a mild four-season climate. Proximity to Philadelphia, the Jersey Shore, and the Pine Barrens offers diverse recreation and cultural options.
