Default Florida Residency Rules

Does anyone know what are the rules are for claiming Florida as residence for state income tax purposes? We've owned our home in the Bonita village since 2009 but have only visited irregularly. However, starting this winter we're planning to snowbird (possibly for one or two seasons). So what we're trying to determine is whether we can claim Florida as our residence for state income tax exemption purposes while still owning our home in Virginia and living there part of the year. I would assume our regular snowbirds know all about this. We would appreciate any advice/insight on this subject.
