Your Red State not so Red anymore? The Free State of Florida may be your only hope...

Thinking about moving to Florida? Here's a little guide to help you figure out which part of the Sunshine State might be right for you. Just remember, Florida is a whole lot bigger than Miami and Orlando! From the sugar-white beaches of the Panhandle to the natural springs of North Central Florida, the excitement of Tampa Bay, the historic charm of St. Augustine, and the tropical paradise of the Florida Keys, every region has its own personality and lifestyle.

Whether you love big-city energy, quiet small towns, beautiful beaches, outdoor adventures, or year-round sunshine, Florida has a place that might feel like home. 

I chose to buy and live in The Villlages for a number of reasons, not the least of which was affordability, which seems to be a very popular topic lately. 

I won't tell you what my monthly nut is beyond saying that with a mortgage and insurance and the typical shit you need to survive, it's well under 3 G's a month - well under. We could  honestly live out our days here just on our SSI, so - Choose wisely!

Those two items popped up side by side when I went looking for the listing I wanted to see. Obviously the one on the left (the one I have outside my lanai) is the better deal. See for yourself by clicking on the lower-priced one. They have bigger sizes also. Take a look. I like the one I have...

Sorry about the size of this ad, but hadda make a point.
