Taxes

Virginia partially taxes withdrawals from qualified retirement accounts, Florida does not. There are other tax considerations which, on average, work against a Virginian retiree.

Political

This could be positive or negative depending upon your views. Your taxes, whatever they are, support the overall political landscape of the state that you claim residence to. Moreso than the state that you are a seasonal resident of.
