Cost of living in South of France - 2012
01 December 2011
My husband and I are planning to sell our house in the UK and retire somewhere quaint and quite perfectly adorable in the South of France (probably the Languedoc-Roussillon region). We'll most likely have more than enough money to buy a place, and even renovate - if it comes to that. So, no mortgage payments necessary. With that in mind, we want to make sure our pension will cover our remaining years in France. Can anyone tell us what the cost of living is in the South of France, for a couple looking to live out the twilight of their life comfortable, but not extravagantly?

Let me know what other questions you have.
My husband and I are considering relocation from the USA to the Montpellier area sometime during the next 12 months. He is a UK citizen and I am an American. Neither of us is planning to work after relocating to France. Any advice (financial or otherwise) is much appreciated.
