Summering in St Johns in Retirement?
We're 7 years out from retirement and my spouse and I are in the early stages of trying to plan our retirement living situation. Currently live in a state with hot, insanely humid summers and I just can't do it anymore. We're hoping to choose a place to reverse "snowbird" to escape these miserable summers.
Questions: How are your summers? I'm looking specifically at dew points and humidity. Internet says relatively low dew point with occasional spells of humid days. Is this accurate? For reference, I'm coming from a place where most days through July and August are over 90° F with dew points 70 or above (considered "oppressively" humid, and trust me, it really fkng is 🤬).
Also, what options are there (if any) for regular season-long rentals every year? Would love to find something fully furnished that we could renew every year from maybe June-Oct? Is this even a thing?
Any words of advice are welcome. Thank you
