We are getting ready to retire, and want a winter home in a WARM place. WE dont want to live in a gated community, or an "old peoples" area. We are people lovers. Would like to find a small town, that has real houses for sale. We have a dog, (Doberman), and grandkids, and we want a place they would be welcome. Would like to hear from people who live there, and can recommend a place. Not realators who want to make money. Thank you in advance for any help.

tallahassee is really nice. i live there now. gets down in 30s some nights but only lasts for about a month. during the days tho its usually 50-60s (during cold times) but it has a young feel bc of the college and beach (hr away). but lakeland, tampa is further south and warmer w/younger feel.

Stay north of West Palm Beach. Housing is cheaper, safer, and nicer. People are more friendly. South florida is mostly old folks communities, gated communities and alot of crime.
Fort Lauderdale is a horrible choice, I work there and live in Hallandale. Yuck.

I live in Miami, but if you want a small town, try Pensacola, I lived there too, great friendly people, pretty good real estate prices, not too small, and not a big city.... www.visitpensacola.com... check out the site............
