I have always lived more than an 8 hour drive from family members, and we would visit as often as possible by flying. WHen I moved to Florida, my closest relatives were in upstate NY, PA and MD, and they were happy to visit me, especially in the winter.
I have used Skype, facebook, texting, and phone to keep in touch regularly. Also tools like Shutterfly for photo albums.
I know a lot of people are in a different situation, and moving would change their face to face frequency with family members.
