Hot Springs, Arkansas (population 36,000) is a
popular tourist spot that attracts a lot of retirees (it even attracted Al
Capone back in the day). With a pretty location in the middle of
lakes and rolling hills, it has a mild climate and is home to famous
healing spa waters. Roughly 24% of the population is aged
45-64 and about the same percentage is age 65 and older.
Health
care is very good for a city of its size. There are three general
hospitals, and Little Rock, with more medical facilities, is less than an
hour away. Garrett Manor is a Level II assisted living
facility.
