Winters on Mississippi Gulf Coast
Do many snowbirds choose the Mississippi Gulf coast as their destination to winter in an RV? We are considering it, and are open to suggestions pro and con.

Compared to SD the OP will find the Gulf Coast downright balmy in the winter. Texas is nice too but the difference in winter temperatures is not significant enough for that to be the deciding factor. I spend the winters in the Florida Panhandle and am very comfortable. I do not have a four season RV and do not need one. I do not spend an excessive amount on propane either. Typically we will have a few freezing nights in January and February. It usually warms up during the day and a "cold spell" rarely lasts more than three or four days. Occasionally we will have a hard freeze where temps stay below 30 for 18 to 24 hours but this is unusual and can be anticipated and prepared for. I can't say as I have ever been particularly flustered about cold temperatures, I just add a sweater as needed. lizzie
