    1. Why not your son's address

    2. I use My Home Address Link since I full time. Very happy.

    3. Bills (credit cards and utilities for base home) are paid (drafted) automatically. Thus I only get about 12 pieces of mail a month.

    4. Will the campground receive and hold your mail?

    do you own the property in florida or do you rent? You may want to use that address as your official address particularly if you own the property but a lot goes into that decision. Health insurance costs, property taxes, state income tax costs, vehicle insurance costs, etc. All of those vary depending upon your official home of record address. The home of record decision is more important than just where you mail gets sent.

    Where will you claim residency? If you plan to be out of your home for more than 6 months, getting your mail in another State can be used to determine your residency which will effect not only your license and insurance but could effect health insurance and taxes.
