In another kudo for the Bull City, "Black Enterprise" magazine has named Durham as the best city in the U.S. to retire to.
Our city bested runners-up Charlottesville, Ann Arbor, Nashville, and Lexington, Ky. in the rankings, perhaps in part due to its other nickname -- the City of Medicine. Health care played a key role in the ordering (accounting for one-fifth of cities' scores), as did climate, arts, culture, quality of life, leisure activities, traffic congestion, and airport access. No other North Carolina cities made the top 20.
(H/T to the N&O for catching this one.)

Almost positive this was mentioned a while back in the Herald-Sun.
