e-flyer: I understand. I gave up going to a number of places from October to May because of the overcrowding. It was bound to happen.

Beside the seasonal residents returning there are also renters and when it comes to town squares, restaurants etc we are including the surrounding area..

An employee of TV told me that he had never seen as many renters as he has this month and he has lived here for many years.

The term velocity explains the affect renting has on the increase number of people. We all just adjust. I mean Florida is the only state in the Unon that hasn't experienced snow....yet
