Seems like the biggest con for retiring is a lack of high quality medical systems/hospitals nearby unless you go to Flagstaff or Phoenix (not very convenient). And still no Sprouts either right? Fix a few of those things and it’s heaven!
Yeah I agree with that 100%. I'm actually looking for land to put a double wide trailer or modular home as they call it on... Need to get out of the Northeast.
There are very few vacant lots left in Sedona that are zoned for Manufactured or modular homes. But you can still sometimes find one . A noticed a lot recently that was zoned correctly that was listed in the low $100,000. Not sure if it is still available.
Lack of healthcare, doctors, hospital, specialist etc., seems to be the biggest con. Does not matter how healthy you are, something will unfortunately knock you sideways! Fast access to ER/major trauma center could be lifesaving. Also general ease of access to specialists makes a massive difference, especially when you are at your most vulnerable.
Thanks Dawn! Puts things into perspective so one can make informed choices when deciding on Sedona area. 😊
Thank you

There are medical facilities in Prescott and Prescott valley, which is a lot closer than Phoenix.
Sedona has a Whole Foods Market.
Very accurate. :)
There is a Whole Foods and one of those Fresh Grocer stores, sorry I can't remember the name. but no Sprouts or Trader Joes.

My big question is what part of Sedona to buy into- West Sedona or the VOC. Do you have a video about that choice?
What about wildlife that can get in the house? Bark scorpions? Snakes?

Isn't there a hospital in nearby Cottonwood?
