Wellington has been ranked as one of the “Best Places to Retire in the U.S. Right Now” in a recently published list by Money Magazine.
The article highlights Wellington as the best place for golfers to retire, stating, “Thanks to its 234 days of clear skies and proximity to Palm Beach County’s plethora of golf courses and country clubs, Wellington is a golfer’s paradise.”
In a quest to find the best places to retire, magazine researchers looked at data on more than 500 cities across the country. They focused on metrics like economic health, cost of living, healthcare, crime, diversity, quality of living and amenities.
Wellington’s abundant amenities and popular family-friendly activities played a major factor in the ranking. The magazine noted the Lakeside Family Fun events as one of the village’s best assets, writing, “Bring the grandchildren to the Lakeside Family Fun Days, which offer free kayaking and other activities.”
The Wellington Village Council is proud of this recognition and continues to support the village’s mission by creating programs and events for residents of all ages.
