The difficulty of living the lifestyle for someone accustomed to wide open space and lots of elbow room and a lifetime of collecting stuff is....
you have to give it all up to live the lifestyle, unless you can afford a million or more for property.
There is controversy over where you can and can't walk your dogs, you cannot put up a fence, the neighbors may report you for anything you do on your property that they dislike, there is almost no shade, prices for property are quite higher than comparable housing nearby in Florida, and you definitely can't keep the rv at your house.

Now some others will tell you how much they got rid of. If I had it to do over, I would not bring a stick of furniture except heirlooms.
