Where to Retire MagazinePetoskey, Michigan is being featured along with seven other towns in the January/February 2008 issue of Where to Retire magazine, in an article entitled "8 Terrific Low-Tax Towns."

The article notes that ". . . in Petoskey, the skiing, sailing and scenery attract many retirees who also enjoy upscale dining options, a charming downtown with boutique shopping and a reasonable cost of living."  The article explains that the yearly local tax burden on a hypothetical retired couple with an annual income of $60,000 and a home value of $225,000 would be $4,084.00  This amount would be even lower for a home located outside the city limits.  Resort and Bear Creek Townships, for instance, both have lower property tax rates than those in the city proper.

Other terrific low-tax towns featured include Easton, Maryland, Oxford, Mississippi, Gainesville, Georgia, Fairhope, Alabama, Staunton, Virginia, Ashland, Oregon and Kalispell, Montana.  Once again Petoskey finds itself in great company!  If you are considering places to retire, make sure you come see why everyone is raving about Petoskey.  The natural beauty of the area is unsurpassed, we have abundant recreational and cultural opportunities, we are a very safe community with an excellent quality of life, we have a first class regional medical center, and it is an affordable place to live.  What more could you ask for?
