We retired to New Hampshire from NY. Never cared for Florida though we had a few nice vacations there. We don’t like extreme heat and humidity.
Seems people hate snow and colder weather for some reason. I mean, when you are retired you can stay home a day if it snows. They do clear the roads. And you can hire someone to clear your driveway. They make clothes that keep you warm. You have heat in your homes. It’s not a big deal.
Having 4 seasons and different landscapes ( lakes, ocean, mountains) breaks up the monotony.
Anyway, people like Fla not only due to weather and the beaches, but low cost of living overall. Politics might play into it a little bit also, but I don’t think that’s the biggest reason.
My neighbor moved from Massachusetts to Florida and hated it and moved here to NH. She had cancer and said the medical care was better. But that wasn’t the only reason.
This is what we see every day on our walks.
