The Tar Heel state has it all: more than 300 miles of coastal beaches, lively Piedmont cities, the highest mountains in the eastern United States, warm summers, mild winters, bustling college towns, tourist attractions, shopping, recreational opportunities, cultural events and the proud distinction of being one of the country's top retirement states.

If you want to be in the middle of the action, yet have breathtaking natural beauty within arm's reach, choose North Carolina as your destination - and Galloway Ridge as your retirement address. Only Galloway Ridge has been called "a prototype for future housing developments for older Americans" in The Wall Street Journal.
