39 Great Florida Retirement Towns: From the Very Affordable to the Upscale - Paperback

by Kris Kelley (Author)

Updated January, 2023! Thinking of retiring in Florida? The state is as popular as ever with retirees, thanks to its favorable tax structure, warm weather and beautiful beaches. Not all Florida towns, however, are created equal.

Here we have 39 Florida towns that are worth consideration when it comes to retirement. Some are well known. Others are off the radar. The towns with the lower costs are not fancy places, but they are safe and comfortable. The upscale towns have amenities and a quality of life that are worth the higher prices.

In each town, we look at population, median home price, percentage of people age 45 or better, medical facilities, transportation, climate, political leanings and more. And because no place is perfect, we also note each town's drawbacks. Reviews are short and to the point for quick reading.
