I will be very interested in your impressions of FL compared to Texas. We have been to Texas and AZ but not FL.
I $pent three winter$ in Florida before switching to the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. South Florida has more attractions, nicer beaches, and better weather. At twice the price for parking, it should. Looking forward to some Bluegrass music, Grouper, and time on the beach.
For us it's not so much about saving money as it is what you get for your money. We allocate $500/month for lot rent, more then that and I might as well not RV, but buy property instead and hope for a ROI.
In FL we had a very nice park that was 60 miles away from just about anything you wanted for $500/month. At first it seemed like a perfect spot, but at the end of the season I realized we were 60 miles away from everything!
Here in TX, for that same money we get to walk the beach everyday, fish when we want, and eat/drink every night at a different place if we wanted too for that exact same $500/month.
