If you are thinking about retiring in Florida, think again.
Florida is over-crowded, suffers from changes in global warming, has a reactionary state government focused more on anti-WOKE issues than good government, is the nation’s fraud capital, and has a shaky real estate market that is very localized and socially fragmented.
Towns and cities in South Florida are run by real estate developers who disregard issues about congestion and infrastructure, pressure local governments for easements, and zoning variances, and fight for every square foot of buildable space. This means local residents are left to repair the mess.
Do your homework before you buy in Florida.
