CIB:

I'm a year-rounder. The weather is no worse than what I was used to in St. Louis: hot and sticky most of the time.

But, I think it is less oppressive at night, probably because there aren't so many high-rise, heat holding buildings. Anyway, I find it really quite berable, whereas St. Louis often was not.

Highs stick to 90-95, lows in the 70s. June begins "the rainy seaso." One June was a record-setter, the next one was as dry as a good martini!

I saw not too long ago that only 30% of Villagers are seasonal. So, there's still a good crowd here. But, enough fewer that eating at a restaurant is far, far less of a hassle. Wait-times are shorter, sometimes non-existent; depends when you go.

My street has no snowbirds at all. I know of very few in the wider neighborhood. I think it pretty unlikely that you'd find an empty street all summer!
