Quartzter:
I know Quarzsite snowbirds are mostly boondockers. Nevertheless if the drop in snowbird numbers is mostly related to cost increases would you agree that there should be an increase in snowbirds in Quartzsite and have noticed any trends?
Sorry GrampaKoot...I have no idea. I think that for those that find it too expensive for Medical Insurance will simply stay in Canada although the weather is certainly not comparable in the Winter.
However...seems to me that many of the younger Canadians go to Arizona rather than the RGV. I know many who have bought houses during the housing bubble, and are willing to spend more money in the hopes that property values will return to former levels.
I just don't know about boondockers and costs in Quartzite vs costs in the RGV.
This whole topic has so many variables as to why the numbers are dropping.
