Default Florida vs New York

Yes, interesting information. The two are different in many ways too. New York City density and younger population is a huge difference. Although Florida has travel, it pales in comparison to the international flights in and out of NY. There is compelling evidence that the virus originated overseas and was carried to the United States. Many of us moved to Florida for the mild winter climate. Of course there are other reasons, and high on the list is the opportunity for an active lifestyle that a community with amenities like The Villages. Common sense distancing, washing of hands and following Coronavirus guidelines will help get us through this experience. Most of us have survived tough times before and will again.
