What West Coast Retirees Need to Know About Healthcare in Texas

Summary: Thinking about retiring to Texas from California or other high-cost coastal states? One of the most important considerations is access to healthcare. Fortunately, Texas—and especially North Dallas—offers exceptional options for retirees seeking top-tier medical services and senior care.

Healthcare quality is a top concern for retirees—and understandably so. Fortunately, Texas continues to expand its healthcare infrastructure, especially in areas popular with affluent retirees such as Frisco, Plano, McKinney, and Southlake.

Why Texas Is Attracting Retired West Coast Buyers:

• No state income tax on pensions or retirement income

• Access to renowned hospitals, private clinics, and concierge physicians

• Lower cost of senior living and long-term care

• Mild climate and walkable, wellness-focused communities

Best Texas Regions for Retiree Healthcare:

Region	Benefits
North Dallas (Frisco, Plano, McKinney)	Access to Baylor, UT Southwestern, private specialists
Southlake / Westlake	Concierge practices, low-density living, short drive to DFW Airport for medical travel
Austin Metro	Teaching hospitals, natural wellness options
Hill Country (San Antonio, Boerne)	Slower pace, veteran medical care access

Key Services for Retirees:

• Medicare-accepting hospitals and primary care

• Geriatric specialists and rehabilitation centers

• Top-rated memory care and assisted living communities

• Wellness centers with preventive health and fitness programs

Quote from Nitin Gupta:

“Many of my retired clients come from California expecting to downgrade healthcare access—but they end up impressed by how advanced and available care is in North Texas. It’s a huge relief.”
