Default Best places for a soaring pilot to retire?

Once you get used to the wind, Moriarty is a fine place for year round
soaring.Â* And at an airport with no fence and two 7,500' runways.Â* Lots
of nearby amenities in Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Taos, etc.Â* Real estate
prices seem high to me but taxes are very low. Summers are not too hot
and winters do not have a lot of snow, either.

This seems like a good topic to resurrect in anticipation of a convention soon in the Southwest. I expect to retire in 2018 and would love to meet some people at Reno who could answer questions about various clubs, towplane reliability, real estate prices, and summer XC possibilities. Winter XC is not so important for me as I spend most of my winters flying in South Africa. But I am trying to find a good retirement place in the Southwest.
