Most of the citrus growers are just selling off their land for housing developments. Florida is still experiencing high growth. A lot of that growth is older populations trying to avoid state taxes on their retirement income. These people don't need to live near industrialized areas. They just want to live near other older populations.

I am hearing from people who are interested in going there but perceiving it is "full", that is has gotten so crowded and crazy that it is better to retire in place.

I live in FL, that take is FUD from those with vested interests in taxable incomes.

FL is a great place to retire, and no state income tax is only one out of 1,000s of reasons to move to FL instead of where you're currently residing.

If you're a remote worker, or retired you just can't beat Florida's no income tax, great climate, and affordable living.

If someone is telling you different, they're trying to sell you something. We don't have to sell anyone on Florida, here, as it sells itself many times over.

This is a line peddled by native Floridians who don't have the skills to earn a competitive salary that they can then use to buy a house. I can only talk about Tampa and St. Pete, but neither places are "full".
