If you don’t have a car then you’re pretty much in a metro area with Uber and/or Lyft. Public Transport can be sketchy at times. We did just fine for six weeks with no car in a destination area.
Having a vehicle will open up the snowbirding area for you. Your problem will be getting only one key month. Those that rent out their places know they can rent out those key months all day long. What they’re looking for is the 3+ month rentals to help offset the bills. One month rentals are low on their list.

Don’t rule out casinos. Normally in destination areas and reasonably priced. VRBO’s need to compete in those areas also so deals can be found.
Like a good fishing spot, not many will say where they caught the heavy stringers. We all spent lots of time and money figuring out those spots. The more you read about an area on the internet the more likely there is a real reason for it. Back to Google earth.
Aruba and Azores is on my list of potential fishing spots. Been to both, never long term.
