I would do some investigating before I moved to either Homestead, Orlando, or Kendall Lakes. The closed City of Homestead Dump was located at SW 310th Street & 160th Avenue and now is developed with homes and schools. Lennar Homes built Vista Lakes community on a WWII bombing range in Orlando Florida and live ammunition has been found throughout the neighborhoods. Kendall Lakes reportedly has a high rate of breast cancer. Be very careful and do a lot of research before moving to any community in Florida.

I agree with SIF. The humidity/heat will dampen most your outdoor plans in the summer unless you have a boat. I believe the hot weather is slightly worse on the Gulf. I live in Tampa and the best thing about the award winning beaches in summer is the outdoor fresh water shower as you leave the beach when the gulf water temp. is simmering at 90 degrees. Cross off hiking, camping, biking, etc. in the summer, it's just too bloody hot. As a Californian, you'll be acclimated to traffic/dense population, since the coastline here is pretty much built up.
