Florida is the largest 55+ active adult community market in the country by a wide margin. From The Villages (the single largest age-restricted community in America) to the luxury resort communities along the Gulf Coast, Florida offers more variety in price point, lifestyle, and geography than any other state. The no-income-tax advantage is real, but the full cost picture — including insurance, CDD bonds, and flood zones — is more complex than most buyers expect.

Florida Retirement Tax Snapshot

No state income tax. No tax on Social Security, pensions, or retirement income. The Homestead Exemption reduces assessed value by up to $50K. The honest counterweight: property insurance has doubled or tripled in many counties since 2020, and CDD bonds add $1,000-4,000+ per year in newer communities.
