One of  the larger cohorts of people moving to new York City (are) retirees

boat. So these (usually 80-somethings) move to a small apartment above  the 
grocery store in Manhattan (well, maybe 20 floors above the grocery  <g>).

But earlier, they have retired in the Sun Belt.  
 
What's that line from "Torch Song Trilogy"?  "But Jewish widows  ALWAYS
move to Palm Springs (Florida)".  Ann Bancroft plays it so well  in the 
movie
version, probably with tips from her husband, Mel Brooks.
