There are different size houses.
.......The other big factor (like a gorilla in a room) is will you spend the summers in TV Land or are you going to be a snowbird. I hope that you know that summers are VERY hot in Florida and the last 8 years have been record heat. And the prediction of HEAT (and likely hurricanes) is going to CONTINUE increasing for years. So, there are GREATER factors to consider about relocating to Florida than MERELY insurance costs.
.........Personally, unless you plan to keep 2 homes, I would locate in one of the Carolinas. Find a retirement area there in order to avoid the Florida summer HEAT, which is already beginning.

Most of us don’t have 50,000 years to worry about that heat increase hitting.
