While Florida is warm all year round, there is still bad weather. In this state, it comes in the forms of heavy storms. During the summer months, Fort Lauderdale gets the most precipitation of any state! So while you can donate some of your coats before your move, make sure to keep one or two handy for those rainy days.
On top of the nice, warm weather, you’ll be happy to hear just how much cheaper it is to live in Florida. This move will take you from the state with the seventh highest personal income tax to one of the seven states without a personal income tax. If you’re coming from New York City, then you’ll find that average rent in Florida’s biggest city, Jacksonville, is five times lower.
When moving across state lines, you’ll want to make sure that the mover you are using is certified. A great way to find this information is by searching the Department of Transportation Database. To find us you can use our DOT number which can be found at the bottom of every page.
