May I hijack the post for one second = this one brings up a question that someone here knows the answer:

If the winter population of TV is 100%>

- What is the % in the summer (ie year-'round residents, discounting their travel)?
- What is the % in the summer of renters occupying homes left by Snowbirds?

Just askin' - my guess would be 75% of TV homes are year 'round and another 5% rent Snowbird homes --- so we drop a net of 20% of the TV population Apr-Oct. Anyone know the published stats?
