North East is that near Sarasota? I have looked in a lot of areas but the cost of homes is so high. I am not giving up I will hopefully find a area, do you know if the house median is high in your area?

Live in North Central Flordia. Gainesville area. Love it! From CT and do not miss the cold weather! You'll live it here. The cost of living is similar to the North. House prices are not much lower than the North. I rent because of the cost of houses. But I don't mind not owning a house. Have so much more freedom. Hope that helps! Love the truck!!!!

Sarasota is southwest Florida. We live out in the country in between Jacksonville and Gainesville. Honestly, you can find a house in many different price ranges…. Depending on the size of the house and land. Our neighbors sold their 3 bedroom-2 bath on 5 acres for @300k. But we are out in the country

I am a Florida native and highly recommend the Jacksonville area. Jacksonville sits in a little curve that keeps the “bad” hurricanes away from us. We may get strong tropical winds, but that’s about it. However, there is ALWAYS something going on here. It’s a huge city and it’s always a fun place to be. We’re already back in the 80’s. I wouldn’t trade my heritage for anything. Come on down for a visit sweet friend and I’ll show you around. ❤❤ Great video.

I really enjoyed the video, however, the truck 🛻 was my favorite. Florida is a beautiful place and tropical. Anywhere we live there are good and sometimes bad in the areas we just need to pick our battles. I was born and raised in Biloxi, MS. It is right along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. Beautiful area and yes the downside is during hurricane season as with all the coastal areas. Go north you have snow and ice to deal with. So again do your studies and take the plunge to fine your happy place. Good luck.

Hello, Florida Native here..5th generation from Manatee County but I live in North Port now. North Port is the largest town in Sarasota County...land wise. Population is smaller but, growing like crazy these days. Its still a lot cheaper than being in the main Sarasota area & Bradenton (Manatee County). Sarasota has many cities or communities...there's Sarasota city & area, Nikomos, Venice, Welland Park & North Port (most southern) If you have any questions, I'll be glad to help. I Love crafting ...more time to enjoy now that I'm retired. I've enjoyed your videos & your creations. Good luck on you quest to our Sunshine State...Sincerely, Deidra

Your projects were absolutely wonderful! IMHO Spring can't get here fast enough! I moved to the PNW from the Midwest almost 20 years ago. Aside from the occasional freak ice and snow storms it's not too bad weatherwise, as I don't really like extremes in either direction but my disdain for extreme cold is what made me move here. Yeah the winters are wet and gray but sometimes we get those nice 50 degree sunny days in the middle of winter and it's absolutely delightful.

Try North Florida people are friendly & helpful. I live in Lake City probably you would call it a small town we are close to Jacksonville about 60 miles & about 2 hours from Tallahassee. I grew up here after I married in 970 we moved to Perry FL near Gulf Coast about 25 miles from coast. We have warm to hot weather most of the year but do have frost & some cold days around freezing. Lots of fishing & hunting opportunities if that interests you. If you use Spanish moss in your DIYs you will never have to buy it anymore. Bring it in from your trees & pop in the microwave for a few seconds it will kill the red bug that live in it & you are good to go. Come south & craft with me!
