We are from the north and moved to St. Augustine, full time, 10 years ago. Prior to that, we vacationed here for many years. There is a difference between vacationing and living in an area. The beach is magnificant! HOWEVER, we are making the move to The Villages because of "the lifestyle". There are only so many hours you can sit by the water's edge. We like the many activities offered at TV and look forward to "choices" of what to do. As far as weather? Hot is hot. Yes, St. Augustine is humid during the summer but the breezes make up for that. Inland is hot. Florida is hot. Change the lifestyle during those months, as people up north do. At least you can still get out at night and play tennis/pickleball/walk/bike, etc. It still beats the cold.
