To me cost of living is just below average but less than west palm beach. Last I checked to rent a 3 bedroom was between $900-1200. To buy, I think you can find some some decent ones for about $200k. I'm not great with plants and trees but I think I've seen some but great for oranges, mangoes and other tropical fruits. It has gotten as low as in the 30's in the evenings during winter. During the summer it can get over 100 with humidity but most times it's fairly consistent in the 80's or 90's. Hottest months are July, August and September so if you can handle those then the rest of the year is nothing. Hope this helps!
You can't live on the beach.
