To follow their children who probably left the bay area so they could raise a family?
To escape the cold and humid winters of this 'spectacular climate'(seriously, that's a very relative opinion. San Diego was better. Phoenix is fine if you have AC).
To not have to deal with the hassle of maintaining a 40-60 year old house?
To not have to pay some of the highest state income taxes around?
To reallocate their assets to a growth vehicle and pass on more wealth to their children(seriously our market is maxed for now)?
To live near millions of people in their age bracket in an environment that caters to them?
To have access to superior medical care(IME, South bay sucks. San Diego is better. Phoenix is better. San Antonio is better. etc...).
CA is generally a horrible place to retire unless you have money to burn. If I were 65+, had children, and owned a house in the south bay, I would leave in a heartbeat unless my children were working FANG jobs in the same area of the bay.
