去海边安度退休生活

Seachanger refers to a person who retires to a seaside dwelling.

海边退休族指的是退休后到海边居住的人。

Data from the 1996 national Census reveals the fastest-growing parts of the nation are located on the coast, a few hours’ drive from our capital cities. Meanwhile a study by Morgan and Banks found that 66 percent of males aged 45 and over were likely to become SeaChangers, leaving the city to escape the daily routine of city life.

1996年的澳大利亚全国人口普查数据显示，越来越多的人去海滨城市定居，距离各州的首府只有几个小时车程。摩根银行的一项研究显示，45岁以上的男性中，有66%的人有可能成为海边退休族，远离城市生活的繁杂。

While many Australians flock to the coast as seachangers, they end up as cave-dwellers just as they were in the crowded, polluted, crime-ridden cities they left behind.

尽管很多澳大利亚人涌向海边成为海边退休族，他们却总是窝在家里，和在拥挤、受污染、犯罪率高的城市中过的生活一样。
