I have met people from NY, NJ, Mass., Minnesota, California and all over the US. I live in a new 57 house subdivision and have yet to meet one family born and raised in Florida who bought a house here. Most come for the weather and to escape the high taxes.
I've been here since '86, so the concept of a real winter is a distant memory for me. But it must really suck for Florida's insane humidity to be a welcome trade off. We did a Disney World trip within the past few years and it felt like I was taking a boiling shower after a minute of being outside.
