Hi Wolfgang! I think the best way to systematically look for a walkable town with your criteria is to work by region – north, south, east, west. Then weed out regions where you definitely don’t want to move. From there, dig deeper into climate, demographics, cost of living, and so on. Youtube is an excellent resource for finding the pros and cons of different places. Forums may be useful as well. I found them helpful before we moved to the northwest. I know traveling is difficult at this time, but take trips to get a feel for the town. It may take a bit of research to find your gem, but hopefully, it all falls into place. Hope this helps. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
