I relocated from NJ to Myrtle Beach, SC several years ago.
But, and I think this is extremely important when relocating, try out wherever you're considering to relocate for 6 months. It would be terrible to relocate and then hate the place.
My DH and I did this - rented an apartment for 6 months to see if we liked the area. Luckily, we loved it...and bought a great home once we knew it was a good place for us. Property taxes are low, especially compared to NJ. It's a beach town, lots of touristy things to do, which is great when the 'grands' visit.
