Retirement and SCing ?

Miami, FL (or the nearest big-booty club)
Being a hobbyist; once I retire I hope to not only still be able to SC somewhat (financially speaking); but also live in an area w/ good SCs.
For the fellow PLs – would good SCs be a variable when it comes to where you may/would-like-to settle down for retirement?
For me personally it would be a bit easier decision b/c being a lifelong bachelor I would not have a wife nor kids to consider when it comes to where I would live/retire – so for my PL self I would def want to retire in an area with good SCs.
Below is an article/chart which ranks the best places to retire (per the article's analysis) – skimming over the chart; it looks like the best places to retire are not areas with good SCs:
(the chart is in alphabetical order instead of best to worst – the lower the # in the “Overall Score†column indicates a better place to retire – the score is from 1 to 50 since the ranking is in a per state basis):

Would you want to still club at 90?
CAN you still club at 90?
Are any TUSCLers over 90?
Something is terribly wrong with these results when Michigan is rated higher than both Florida and Hawaii.
Retire where it is affordable, government leaves you alone, and where hospitals are good. Take vacations to good SC cities as needed.
Florida is overrated and Hawaii is freaking over-expensive
For me personally – SCing is an important part of my personal quality of life – but that says something about me though LOL.
Miami – where I currently live – does not have good qualify of life per many measures; IMO – but with all it’s faults; I love living here and love having access to ~60 SCs in the So FL region.
Being that I like to SC on a regular basis and when the mood strikes me –I don’t think I’d be content w/ holding out `till I could take some trips.
Detroit may have great stripclubs, but I have no desire to endure Detroit winters. COI may have great clubs, but if I must live in a SoCal bungalow or trailer park in the price range of a good condo or house elsewhere, count me out.
Other "values" should play a big role in where you choose to retire. If the cost of living is low you will have more money to play with - low enough and you can afford road trips with SC adventures in mind.
If you really want the "dream life" with lots of hot women, good club scene and a party life - consider the Dominican Republic. Great strip clubs, with (legal, management approved) take out, chicas on the beach, at civi clubs, at the local diner and all of them smiling and beautiful. The great thing about DR is that the US dollar goes a very long way.
As Shadowcat said economics and quality of life should come first. Look for your version of great places to live, pick the most reasonable for your budget - then check out the SCs!
I am one of the few people for whom work is stimulation, delight, and (mostly) pure pleasure. I am now not quite the workaholic that I was during my first go-round in the oil patch. If anything, I enjoy work even more now that I am in my mid-60s.
Perhaps the SC hobby has been the reason for this?
I've spent a lot of my retirement in SC but while there's a ton of sc's I've been stood up for OTC several times, feel surrounded by sales clerks who don't know how to make change, and am uncomfortable with aspects of the society. I'm not talking race , but am talking stupidity. One man's paradise is another's nightmare.
Oxymoron
"Retirement and SCing."
Oxymoron
Ah, no. "Working retirement" would be an oxymoron. Perhaps you're implying that the two are mutually exclusive?
When I bought my current home, I only wanted to see places within 10 miles of my favorite strip club. My (female) realtor did not understand why I kept rejecting some properties out of hand.
