Meanwhile, my wife and I are ready to move to Scotland. lol If you’re willing to give up some basic human rights like free healthcare and decent parental leave (also, not a human right, but your vacation/holiday benefits won’t be as good), I’d highly recommend it. It’s a great place to live and work, and I don’t need to tell you how fun it is to live in this area. In addition, while pay is a bit lower than the national average (despite the fact that it’s still fairly expensive to live here), there is no state income tax, so you save money there. Not sure how that adds up with income, though.

By 2022 with all of the inflation, I had to take a remote roll with a company out of California because Orlando jobs were no longer competitive for the new cost of living here. There are a lot of people working remote out of Orlando, and making bank!

I know that many years ago, there was a dude that we used to work with and was our insider in Chase Paymentech. He was living in Orlando back then. I think they decided to have their headquarters in another state down to the road, but I was wondering if they have offices there though. We will be moving towards the end of the summer to Orlando area, but I think we will wait to buy when the houses in Sunbridge start to sell. Very interested in all the info you share in your videos. It helps us to decided where to move to. Husband works remote for Fintech here in San Francisco Bay Are. So, we are ready to enjoy better weather year round, no state taxes and low prices for housing, because here they are going to the roof.

Another well researched & well thought out topic covering the Orlando community! Been following you since the very first video you produced. Question / Comment Folks hear “Good Paying Jobs” but often can’t quantify what that means... While it’s nice to reflect on “good paying jobs” & the employer landscape, I think it would be incredibly well received to define income by zip or community and correlate that buying power by comparing average home prices in that comparison. That data driven comparison would provide flexibility to add personal insights on prevalent neighborhood / builders / developments / housing type(ie Single Family, Condo, Townhome, Tower, Short Term, Long Term, etc...) in those areas. Thanks for the many insights and for the consideration! As an ambassador for Central Florida, there are many of us that appreciate your messaging! Thanks & please keep at it! Cheers From Milwaukee!
