Florida and the South may be hotter in the summer than Ohio. It may be wise to take some trips to several other places to see how you like the weather, before moving for cheaper airfare. I know here in Connecticut, we have hot summers and cold winters, but we have been lucky as far as any major weather problems

You also have to move close enough to an airport that has better options.

As many have stated, medical is also a concern for extended visits. I now take evacuation insurance (another expense).
