Moving from Rhode Island to Florida

Why move to Florida?
- Florida is famous for its terrific weather! The average temperature year-round in South Florida is 72’ (northern Florida is 67’) and the state enjoys 250 days of sunshine each year. If you move to Florida, you can leave that snow shovel behind!
- No state income tax Because of the immense tourist revenue, Florida does not need to levee an income tax on its residents.
- Florida real estate is affordable While the prices have risen in recent year, your dollar still goes a lot further in Florida then it does in a Northern state. Also, homes and lots tend to be more spacious.
- The cost of living is lower than many other parts of the country. Florida ranks only slightly higher than the National Average cost of living index (4.33% above). Rhode Island on the other hand ranks 19.39% above. Your money goes farther in Florida.
- Florida has a booming economy. In addition to tourism, Florida is home to a number of industries such as aviation and Aerospace, Cleantech, Defense, Finance, Information technologies, and life sciences. Florida has one of the largest economies in the United States.
- Outdoor sports and water activities year-round. Because of the weather, you can participate in activities like golfing and tennis any time of the year. If water sports interest you, swimming, sailing, diving, and/or yachting are always close at hand. In Florida, you’re never too far away from the water.
- Don’t forget the beaches! The state has many beautiful beaches including Destin, Clearwater Beach, Naples, Siesta Key, and Amelia Island, just to name a few. Living in Florida provides access to all its beautiful beaches. Again, Florida is a narrow state, so the coast is always close to you.
- An amazing array of activities. From Disney to the Everglades, Florida is full of adventures and unique places. There are natural wonders like Devil’s Den and Butterfly World, historical sites like St Augustine and the Ringling Museum, and of course the theme parks. Disney and Universal are just two of the many.
