Affordability depends on how much money you saved and where you moved from. We moved from NJ and our property taxes went from $12,000 to $2200. Utilities, car and home
insurance and restaurants are less expensive. I know people who have moved from the Midwest and it was less expensive living there. We are here 5 years and feel TV is a good value. Additionally, the price of golf is much cheaper than belonging to golf clubs up North.
