I'm moving from Maine to Texas for retirement. Where should I buy a house with $3,750 to $4,200 a month in retirement income?

I want to retire to Texas. I will be moving from Maine within the next five years and would like a location that has freshwater and some national or state parks. I estimate my monthly retirement income in the range of $3,750 to $4,200. I will be buying a house and selling the one in Maine. Some of the equity will be used for college.

Taxes can be a big focus for retirees, and Texas appeals to many because it doesn’t have a state income tax. While the overall tax burden is low, sales and property taxes are on the higher side.

Other options are the University of Texas at San Antonio, less than an hour’s drive from either New Braunfels or Canyon Lake, and the University of Texas at Austin, less than an hour from New Braunfels.
