That dream move for retirement might cost more than you think. In this episode of Money, Taxes, and Freedom, Bryan and Shane Hopkins break down the real financial impact of relocating in retirement—from taxes and housing to insurance, healthcare access, and unexpected moving costs. They explore why “no income tax” doesn’t always mean lower expenses, how migration trends are reshaping affordability, and why test‑driving a location matters before committing.
