      Insurance period in FL. Home insurance is through the roof - 7k a year for a beat up house in the stix, let alone something nice. And that's not even covering medical costs. FL has some of the most expensive medicine in the US. I actually visit relatives out in other parts of the US for anything that's not an ER visit. The airfair + out of pocket is half of what I'd be charged in FL.

      Same in Florida. It’s based on purchase price. If you buy a $500k home taxes are closer to $12,000 not $2000. I bought my house in 2015 for $238k and my taxes are $4k. You can look up any house on the county property appraisers website and most have a purchase price calculator.

This may or may not mean that your employer has to shut down for the whole week. If you get flooded, you’re not leaving your house for 3 days.

I pay 300+ for 2 vehicles, and i have a perfect record. Verus Texas i was paying only 150 a month. Groceries are higher here, gas higher here, fuel taxes properly than Texas. Groceries sucks here. Shout out to a HEB, aka Central Market. Pubiix in FL sucks. Apt in Texas is high, Dallas areas new apt, easily 1500-2k for a 1bd, Florida and be the same depending where you at can way higher. Twxas has way better higher salaries. Depending on field easily 75k plus. I work in Texas, making over 100k, while i still stuck here. I paided 400k for my house in Fl, 30 mins from beach. If you decide to move to Fl plz do your homework food, gas, utilities are higher tax are higher than Texas. But there's way more things to do here than Texas.
