The Florida those people are thinking of might not really exist any longer. It's HOT everywhere, the humidity is higher the further south you go in Florida. We found our son's area in Sarasota to be much warmer, because of the higher humidity, than here in TV, but people still live in those areas and quite happily, too.
Mosquitoes aren't a problem in our community. It isn't that they don't exist, there just aren't all that many. There is spraying done to control the pests and it works. Homes and stores and office buildings are climate controlled. Your car has air conditioning. If it's hot, you do something indoors. In other parts of the country, it gets cold and you're indoors so here it might just be a different season.
Over time, we all adjust to our new environment....by becoming acclimated or by staying in cool buildings.
Don't listen to them....and remember there are others who might be saying something similar about where they live....it's too COLD, there are mosquitoes, it's extremely windy, there are tornadoes, etc.
