We were born and raised in MN. My wife has SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) so we needed to move someplace with more sun in the winter, plus we both hate snow.... We've spent the last 8 or so years of our vacations exploring where we wanted to retire. Saw a commercial on the Golf Channel and came to check it out, and we kept coming back. We tried it at different times of the year figuring if we can handle the heat and humidity at its worst, we could live here. Not ready to retire yet, 2 years ago I put out resumes from here to Orlando, Tampa to Ocala and didn't get any interest, plus COVID hit. We had planned a Life Style visit for Aug of last year and 2 weeks before our trip I had some tickles on a job. Flew out for our visit, went to the job interview, got an offer the next day and the rest is history. We get to see how we like it and if it doesn't work out we still have time to hit the reset button.... Love so far but still adjusting.
