Thinking of retiring in Florida? Despite hurricanes and sinkholes, the state is still popular with retirees, thanks to its favorable tax structure, warm weather and beautiful beaches. Not all Florida towns, however, are created equal. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHere we have 39 Florida towns worth consideration when it comes to retirement. Some are well-known. Others are off the national radar. The towns with 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. Costs are primarily determined by housing prices. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn each town, we look at population, median home price, median household income, 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKris Kelley lives in beautiful Colorado has been finding and reviewing great places to retire since 2006.
