61 Ideal
If you need to work to 61 then sure it's a great age to quit, but if you can walk away earlier and find things you like to do more than work then of course go for it.
Find your way out of work and into a vocation that you would continue even if you won the lottery and could retire without worry of ever needing to work for money again. That is an early retirement.

USA Best and Worst Places to Retire
Ranked
These rankings have a problem. In each state there are places that have higher quality of life and lower costs. Weather you of course can't change but what's amazing is to see South Dakota as number one. Has anyone doing this research heard about arthritis? There is a reason many move South in retirement and it has to do with Winter pain levels that come from the cold and stiff joints.
Another issue is the control you have over your type of living quarters that can go from a mobile home to a mansion. A mobile home on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, one of the worst ranked states, will not cost appreciably more to live in than a similar one in Florida if you control your land costs. The property taxes on an old trailer are low for most places you will live.

Retirement a Great Second Life
Second Life
If you want a good second life in retirement ideally it should have some connection to your past life. It can be teaching or simply a way to do something related to what you have done but in a more limited fashion.

Retirement Healthcare costs - Shockproof
Costs
Expect to spend whatever your health insurance costs are plus the maximum deductible and out of pocket expenses. Insurance companies do calculations for a reason and they know the average costs. You can plan on spending what they won't cover at a minimum.
