Hi Idahosue,
We moved here to Chiang Mai last August from Bozeman MT. I work abroad. Let me know if you need any info.

Dear all
This site is very good, I have learnt (and will hopefully continue to learn) a lot.
I am visiting again (23rd time) this coming November for a couple of months, then hopefully retire in Chiang Mai towards the end of 2014.

Hi,
First of all, have you been to Chiang Mai? There are a lot of farangs living in Chiang Mai. My greatest advice would be to visit the place and have a gander at what there is here and in the surrounding areas. Condos are very plentiful here as are gated villages. There is a new airport slated to be built down past Sangkanpaeng off Hwy.1317. This place is growing quite fast for sure. I hope this helps a little with this info. Norman

Hmm, seems that all the "top ten places to retire" have put people onto the scent of Chiang Mai. It appears there are lots of folks that make plans to retire someplace they have never been, then are disappointed upon arrival. My advice, spend some time in Thailand, travel around, see the sights, spend some time in Chiang Mai, THEN decide whether you are going to move there or not. Mis dos centavos...
