AnnotationThis study of international retirement migration used quantitative and qualitative methodologies to investigate the late-age retirement of a group of Britons to Benalmádena in southern Spain. A representative selection of opinions given by interviewees is reported in this paper. Although quality of life was not a central theme of this study, interviewees felt that this aspect of retirement migration was important. The author advocates an ethnographic approach in which the researcher listens to what is said and asks questions and records people's views and opinions accordingly. (RH).
