I would not say snowbirds are despised. I would say full time residents are annoyed by snowbirds creating congestion and hazards on the roadways, and long lines at restaurants, squares, and other gathering locations. Examples: Many snowbirds do not know how to negotiate roundabouts which creates hazards. Snowbirds always are in a rush by driving too fast on the roadways and multi-modal paths. At the squares, snowbirds seem to just take over the squares by reserving seating areas, blocking off sidewalk areas with their chairs, coolers, and bags placed in a large circular area. And forget going to a restaurant during normal dining hours...way too crowded, long lines, and rushed food service resulting in poorly prepared meals.
