Description
Greece for Gay Retirees: Beaches, baklava, and a big ol’ ✅ on marriage equality. Opa!
We rank the Top 5 Greek cities/towns for gay retirement—balancing affordability with LGBTQ+ vibe—so you can swap doomscrolling for island sunsets without blowing the budget. Expect bars and beaches, Pride scenes, healthcare access, average 2-BR rent in USD, cost of living vs. the U.S., and our Queer Money Retirement Ratings (1–10).
💡 Takeaways:
- Greece now has full marriage equality (2024)—hello, EU stability + rainbow rights.
- Crete = best value (Heraklion/Chania) if you want beaches without Mykonos prices.
- Athens wins for healthcare, community, and year-round living.
- Island glam = seasonal pricing—plan accordingly.
- A smart pick comes down to rent + COL + community fit—our ratings slightly overweight affordability.
