10 Places Where You Can Retire for $200K

2. Thailand

Tired of being bundled up indoors during cold winters? Move to Thailand and you’ll never have to endure that again because of the coldest months of the year -November to March- average around 86F (30C) daily! The hottest seasons can see the temperature rise above 105F (40C), so get ready for plenty of sun, sand, and sea!

Living in Thailand

Thailand’s cost of living varies depending on the area, but as an estimate you can get by comfortably with around $1,500 to $2,000 per month in Phuket. Food is also pretty affordable, with an entire Thai meal with beer for two costing not even $10 in Chiang Mai, while you’ll spend $15 for a Western meal.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Thailand’s healthcare ranks in the top 50 in the world. Even the best private hospitals cost far less than they would in the West.
