. And no danger of hurricanes. So I'm happy. .
Bring lots of sunblock, get used to flip flops, and leave most of your clothes behind when you move.I would be interested in hearing from those who moved to Florida. How do you like it so far? What advice can you give to those who consider moving to Florida?
Anyone know of any good walkable Floridian cities or towns?
Guess you've ruled out The Villages?
I think downtown Sarasota is pretty walkable, Gone4good. But not cheap. We will be living about 10 min or so from downtown.
Thanks for the suggestion.
As far as prices go, our original home and default base is the New York City area, so most places look "cheap" by comparison . . . and spacious.
