We are also still residents of Michigan. We will be establishing our residency in S Dakota. We own a house in MI that we rent out. MI is one of the costliest states for insurance because of the No-fault medical & wage loss benefits provided, and in FL the first time registration fee for newly registered vehicles would cost us almost $1,000 to get started. Florida, Texas and S Dakota are the most popular choices of states for residency. Texas does have some regulations for vehicle inspections and non-commercial CDL licenses for some of the larger rv's. S Dakota does not have that. Research these 3 states to find what is best for you. Don't forget about health insurance costs also when making your choice.
