We lived in Los Angeles for 45 years. Property taxes here are about the same, but houses significantly cheaper. No state income tax. Even though we have hurricanes the home insurance is significantly cheaper in Florida, but I lived in a fire zone on California. We moved because we couldn’t afford to retire in California and it’s very affordable here in Florida. However, we do miss living on the west coast but our standard of living here is much higher than it could have been out west.
