Floridian lifestyle
Living in New York, I think I would appreciate more of the laid back life style of the South. How many feel the lifestyle is so much better than the North if you are from there.

If you pick an abundance of sun as a "lifestyle"--I would pick Florida, for sure. Other than that--my heart is still in western New York.

People in the villages that don't know NYC commuting would never believe the time and cost. |

Real estate taxes of $10,000 on a very modest home. No thank you.

I think you could find a laid back community almost any where.

You are probably right. Even out east in Long Island.

I remember many a late weekend night where it seemed everyone on the southern state Parkway was drunk or drugged.

In NY & NJ you're a money filter, hard to believe but you can accumulate more money in retirement than you did working up north- very low taxes, and there really is much to spend a lot on,

my daughter lives in Mount Kisco Westchester County. Loves TV but also loves going down to the city going to the Jets games
Everything is a trade off. my ideal setting is a small town where one can go to the local coffee shop knowing most folks engage in small talk play a round or two and then disappear . I was reared in a small city in Central New York. Most people there warm and generous, many good restaurants, but agree the snow and taxes are a real disincentive |

So hard to leave where I have been used to but if I am going to worry about money every day (taxes, oil heat, etc.) then it is time to move on.
Just hope the grass is greener on the other side.
