Just wondering how many on this forum are from Wisconsin and thinking of moving to Florida. What part are you looking to move to? How much research have you done? Did anything you find out surprise you? What are your biggest "needs" or "must haves"? What do you think about HOA's and Deed Restrictions? Pool or not? The list could go on and on.............LOLOLOL

I agree, it makes no sense to restrict the question to WI ppl only, this is a FL forum, if you want only opinions of WI ppl, head to the WI forum.

Well...I'm in Wisconsin and I'm on here finding out info from other people about Florida. I've already met four Wisconsin people on here that are thinking of moving to Florida and they are doing what I'm doing.....gathering info from people that live in Florida or have lived here.
Why are you commenting negatively?
I would hope you had better things to do....like be nice or ****.
Thanks

There's only so much you can learn from talking to strangers online.

How often are you down here?
The only way you can really know if it'll work for you is by spending lots of time down here not doing touristy things.

A couple times a year. We will be down in May so I plan on going to the areas we are interested in and see what's what.
Yes, there is only so much you can learn from people on here but it's fun anyway (for the most part)
Thanks for your input

I'm not from WI - but I am your neighbor in MN. The west coast is a common destination for Midwesterners - Venice, Sarasota, Naples, etc.

HOAs have their pros and cons. It's an individual choice.

Perhaps you could spend a couple weeks traveling down the west side visiting the different cities. Decide on the city first - then drill down into the developments. I think you have many options - what feels 'right' for you.
