Why South Florida is the Perfect Place to Live
Are you considering making a move to South Florida? With the recent pandemic and economic uncertainty, you may wonder if the time has come to relocate. After all, South Florida is the perfect place to live.
In this blog post, we’ll answer your questions about moving to South Florida.
Why South Florida is the Perfect Place to Live
The Warm Weather
For many people, living in paradise means sunning themselves on beautiful beaches and having incredible views. Florida is the perfect sunny place for those looking to escape cooler climates. Even in January, the average high temperature is in the mid-70s. You also have around 200 days of clear sunshine per year. What’s not to love?
However, one should always keep hurricane season (June-November) in mind. The weather is usually nice, but hurricanes can be a concern.
Cost of Living
Florida is a popular vacation hub with its pleasant weather and myriad attractions. Unlike most vacation centers, it is an affordable place to live. The cost of living in the Sunshine State is lower than the nationwide average. However, there are places in South Florida with a high cost of living. For example, Miami’s cost of living is higher than the national average.
No State Income Tax
Florida residents are among the lucky few who can keep more of their income. With no state income tax, they enjoy a much lower overall tax burden than those living elsewhere. It is one of the reasons the cost of living is lower than in some other places.
Retirement-Friendly State
Retirees looking for the best combination of sunny weather and generous tax benefits should consider Florida. Eight cities across the Sunshine State dominate U.S News & World Report’s list of top 10 places to retire. A big part of this is that the state’s tax codes favor retired people. It is a pleasant place to live, and you can stretch your retirement savings farther in Florida.
