We moved here 23 years ago full time and still love it here. Summers are less humid than many areas up north and quite nice in the shade with a bit of a breeze. It took us living thru 3 summers to be acclimated and now we honestly love our summers with the snowbirds gone the pools, the nights on the squares, the restaurants and shops are pleasantly uncrowded. We hardly ever use our car in the summers, preferring the golf cart with the windshield down.
Trust me, after a few summers here you will love it. I'll take the beautiful summers here over freezing cold winters with snow shoveling, snow driving and high heat bills anyday.
By the way, we now keep our ac at 78 in the summers and are cool with low electric bills, just let your body acclimate to the weather here and you'll love summers here too. Or don't and just complain about it. I prefer to love it here. We would never move back up north, visit yes, live there again, no.
