You have made a good analysis and I will answer your questions as I see them in the RGV.
What about activities? Our group does a lot of dancing.
What do people do for entertainment? Again, our group does a lot of dancing.
How do you amuse yourselves day in and day out while down there?See my first two answers.

It was mentioned that Fl is crowded. Not so in RGV? Not sure what you mean by crowded. The urban areas are densely populated, but they are surrounded by huge areas of nearly barren land.
Having experienced both Florida and the RGV, I tell people "You can have a lot of fun and a great time in Florida. If you have a couple hundred dollars in your pocket."
Why all the questions? I retire in 3 years. DW want.s to move to Boston where DD #2 lives but I could not deal with a NE winter.
