Retiring internationally can be a dream come true—whether you want to save money, enjoy warmer weather, or experience a new culture.
Retirement doesn’t mean staying put. For many retirees, it means something far more adventurous: moving abroad. One-third (34 percent) of Americans would like to settle in another country if they were allowed to do so, according to a Monmouth University survey from 2024. This number only stood at 10 percent in 1974. Although this is a growing trend, some individuals may choose to relocate within the United States rather than move abroad.
