What do I need to know before retiring in Izmir?

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Izmir, they said...

"If a friend of mine was thinking of moving here I would be delighted! I think it's a great city. I would advise them to learn some Turkish beforehand (it'll make things a little smoother) and not to forget their winter stuff (even though Izmir is on the Aegean and has hot summers it gets cold here in the winter)," wrote a member who made the move to Izmir, Turkey.
