Many retirees don't consider it deeply at all and end up in places far removed from good long-term health care.

Anecdotally, an aging motel owner in small Sierra town, trying to sell, told me he and his wife needed a place with "straight roads to the doctors".

Real estate agent who told me retirees were coming down out of west-side Santa Cruz cabins as "the medical problems start."
