And if you're looking to retire in Washington, the city they mention is one that, admittedly, I've never even heard of, but looking into that town it makes all the sense in the world.

Where is the best place to retire in Washington State?

According to Stacker

North of Seattle and just south of Edmonds you'll find the small town known as Woodway, WA.

Woodway?

Yeah, it's pretty small. It has a population of only about 1,300 people but most of them are at that retirement age so most of the people in that town are already there. About 23% are over 65 years old while 13% are between 55 - 64 years old.

Looks like it'd be a nice place. Probably pretty quiet in this area. There's a beach with Puget Sound right there and plenty of trees that makes that side of Washington State so great.

If your idea of retirement is peace and quiet, this sounds about perfect. Might be one to keep in mind.
