Florida’s retired.
“Florida’s retired.”
Yea - retired, snow birds (income out of state) and tourists income out of state). Makes sense.
I think also there is a lot of income in Florida that is likely not counted/mapped in median salaries, because it’s in capital gains in real estate. All states have a certain level of real estate bought and/or sold for investment purposes, and I think Florida ranks high in that regard. I know quite a few Northeast snow birds with second or investment residences in Florida.
I have been living and working in FL for the last 14 years all while making MD money. I quit my job in MD, boss lady said let him work from home in FL.
Sweet deal!
