I moved here from Az. My daughter & Grandson moved with me. She is a Certified Medical Assistant which means she has student loans to pay. In Az she was making $16/hr and had 3 1/2 yrs experience. Here DOCTOR offices were offering her $10. She is a single parent. She bought a small house with the Gov's help (due to low income). It is actually less expensive for her to make mortgage payments than it was to pay Rent. With all the elderly here in Fl, where would these Dr's be without their Medical Assistants running their offices? But they offer such low salaries because they can get away with it. After living here for almost 3 yrs, she has FINALLY found an office that pays a decent salary of $15/hour.
