Floridian transplants fleeing in droves over relentless heat, damaging hurricanes

The grass is apparently not greener in Florida.

Thousands of Floridian transplants who moved to the Sunshine State during the pandemic are packing up to move elsewhere, complaining of the relentless heat, damaging hurricanes and dangerous wildlife.

More than 700,000 people drawn by the promise of sunny weather, no income tax and lower costs moved to Florida in 2022 — including 90,000 from New York state, according to census data cited by NBC News.
