That's not just South Florida but anywhere on the coast.

That is so true anywhere south of Interstate 10 insurance is absurd ! When a bad hurricane hits NOT IF but when it hits insurance company's will do anything NOT TO PAY !
READ YOUR POLICY CAREFULLY (WITH YOUR LAWYER).

Congrats!!! I have always liked that area...great boating, beaches and easy access to Caledesi Island. I have used that inlet a few times making the Gulf run to and from Panama City.

Welcome back!!

beerme....Please keep us posted where you decide to live. I do not know your personal finances and please understand where Im coming from. I lived in Pompano Beach for two years and spent most of my time from West Palm to Miami. The line of work I did was mostly on the water (ICW) and I meet some great people and drank a few beers with them. All I can say is WOW. The money the sight and sounds are unbelievable in these areas. If I was fortunate enough to even THINK about being able to buy a house in those areas would be a accomplishment of its own. You cant even compare any other places in Florida to South Florida. Yes I have been to Naples,Ft Myers,St Pete,Tampa etc and are all great places that I would live but IMO you cant compare these places in the same sentence as south florida. Good Luck and keep us posted!

Yes, I will... we're looking inland in the Clearwater, Dunedin, Largo area to rent for a year, then purchase something on the ICW after we settle in.

Let the stress of moving begin.... arrrrgh!!!

Congrats and welcome back. This is definitely where I would have recommended. I have boated and fished all over the state and would definitely say the Tampa Bay area has the best boating.
