Well for my particular case I had family there, real estate, and fla has no state income tax so that is a new car every year free even before the saab employee discount - hehe. A lot of retirees tell me they cannot live up north because of the cold and thier arthritis - no amount of money could make them go back into that. But many are saying they would rather be in arizona than hurricane alley florida. You gotta remember florida used to be cheap next to NY. The stench is out again right now - not as bad as the other day - that people choose to live like this makes no sense to me, I asked a couple of the cuban neighbors why not sell your homes next to this sewage and get high dollars and move closer inland - they said no way. I said why - they say this is their home - they like it. From what they tell me about communist cuba and their struggles to get here, just a little bit more struggle and they can be away from the sewage and bugs - but I guess that first struggle sapped them all and they are planted now - hehe.
