Anyone familiar with Stamford TX area ?

Looks way out in the boonies to me. Personally, I would never want to retire to the boonies. Maybe have some sort of place out there as a second home but as I get older I want to be closer to everything I need such as doctors, stores, church, etc.

Husband kept wanting to move to the boonies. I kept saying I wanted to be close to doctors, hospitals and stores etc.
The time he had to go daily for radiation for 3 months ended the talk of moving to the boonies.

We have the best of both worlds. Front yard = city back yard = country (in the city) We have a creek, wildlife and no neighbors on the opposite side of the creek.

That sounds ideal. What area are you in?

I had breakfast there last Saturday. Pretty darn good!

My mom is in her early 70's and lives by herself in Frisco in a huge house. She is considering a move at some point in the future. She is mobile but her health is not perfect now. She feels like a fish out of water in Frisco. I feel bad for her as her husband was ten years younger so she was not supposed to end up dealing with this on her own. Not sure what her next move should be yet. She also has two dogs she's not going to part with...

If I had to go into a retirement facility, I believe one in Lubbock would be high on my list.

Very good hospitals and great people.
