ARE THERE ANY SNOWBIRDS ANYMORE?

SnowBirds, YES for 12 years now.

You are absolutely right. And where did they come from?? Yup, you guessed it.

Only about 35% of Floridians are native Floridians. About 1.6 million 'Floridians' were born in New York (that's about 8% of Florida's total population) . . . helps explain a large part of the problem :C

No. I'm now a rain bird. Sold the wet house and moved to a dry house.

My belief is it's the inconsistent mix of drivers:
- Regular Floridians
- Immigrants
- Snowbirds
- Tourists

Each has a different driving style and it results in a bad mash up of traffic.

To the original question: 2 yrs ago we did a loop of the south and parks were empty. Last 2 winters, we were able to get out of the country for the winter.

OP is from Oklahoma I see.
OK is probably not ok in the winter!
PS, we're heading for Quartzsite shortly.

Frankly I don't care which way we send em' --- usually not too bad once you get used to the congestion on our roads, but I only wish they'd leave their driving habits back where they spend the rest of the year.

The fairgrounds in Tucson where I work is usually full of snowbirds this time of year but currently it's maybe half full.

Thirteen years south in the fall north in the spring. Down in South Louisiana presently.

Yes

Have 67 spaces in the park I am in. 39 are year-round. Rest are snowbirds. Out of 28 snowbird residents, 26 have come down. Full house.
