Why retire in Turkey?
Here are seven Great Reasons: 1. Turkey is Affordable
2. Turkey is Safe
3. Turkey is Famous for Cultural Warmth Whether it’s late-night raki toasts, greeting your new neighbors, cheering over a football match, or actually getting an answer when you call Turkish Airlines to change your flight, you will certainly find people in Turkey to be warm and welcoming in interpersonal relations. Turkish social culture also places high regard on respect for elders, whether foreign or local. Older “aunts” and “uncles” are held with respect, and are rarely the victims of petty crime. 4. Turkey Offers Great Coastal Weather From Izmir to Antalya, most coastal communities have an average yearly temperature of 65°F accompanied by nearly three thousand hours of sunlight. In January the daily average is 49°F (the same as Phoenix, AZ), and in July 83°F (that’s twenty-three degrees less than Phoenix). 5. Turkey has Fantastic Food
6. There’s Plenty to Do! Whether you enjoy ocean sports like swimming and sailing, pampering yourself at the spa, taking hikes, learning traditional arts and crafts, spending the afternoon with a book at a café, biking along the coast drinking local beer and cheering on a soccer match, or visiting roman ruins, there’s plenty on offer in Turkey’s cities and towns. And because Turkey has few segregated retirement communities, you will always be surrounded with lively people of all ages, even in towns with larger western retirement populations. 7. You’re Making a Great Investment! Turkey has a growing economy. Investors make a minimum average of 10% on their investments each year – and you should too if you invest in the growing real estate market. Following Turkey’s accession into the European Union, real estate price will only rise higher, and you should make a good return. |

The local population is 47,000, but in summer this swells to 500,000. Though the town is small, it has a lot to offer:
