The snowbird crowd is ageing
Seems to me in Texas the snowbird crowd is ageing, most are over 70 and many over 80. Every year more are too sick or old to make the trip and many have passed on. There are very few younger snowbirds...

Back on topic, do you think those Millennials will be happy with an RV snowbird lifestyle in the years to come? Somehow I just can't see them being happy living in a "home on tires" thinking that will be below their standard of living.
My children and other young visitors to this area (the Rio Grande Valley of Texas)see everything they want to see in a few days and are ready for something else. They are not at all taken with the potlucks and card games of those waiting for the inevitable to happen. They want to see "what is over the next hill", just as I did thirty years ago.
