Pros and cons of retirement to Arizona compared to Florida

The pros and cons of Arizona retirement are centered around Arizona's weather and housing options.

The customer is great, with any standard of 9 to 10 months in a year... months in July and August... and parts in June and September.... Is the exception.

You may have heard that it is the word dry heat... This is true, but within two to three months, the temperature often reaches 110° to 115°...

Although I am a full-time resident of Arizona... I did try to escape at least three weeks in August...

When I came here in July and August, I still played golf three times a week, which was the heat of the day. Sunscreens, wet towels and plenty of water must be used to combat the effects of heat... but it is certainly feasible.

Florida does not have state income taxes, which may be a factor in high-income retirees.

This is related to the extent to which Florida retired to Arizona.

Now in order to choose Arizona to retire... especially compared to Florida or other southern states.

Arizona has more sunshine... more than 300 days a year...

There is less rainfall than Florida...

Arizona's humidity is much smaller...

In Arizona, no bugs, especially mosquitoes, can bother you and carry disease...

If you like outdoor living, then Arizona should have an advantage in your retirement options... With the help of a terrace fan, the 100° restaurant is very comfortable in Arizona.

For 21 years, our home in the Houston area of ​​Texas... is very similar to the Florida climate.

To strengthen our decision to choose Arizona instead of Florida... We have conducted extensive trials before we made our decision to retire in Arizona... We did this in 2004 Things and we haven't regretted since then.

What makes Arizona more attractive is the low cost of housing... I mainly talk about the many park model communities that Arizona retirees can use.

Park model homes start at $10,000, while some older homes are cheaper, making Arizona affordable under any budget.

Due to the large number of activities that residents can perform, these park model communities often remind one of the fixed cruise ships.
