Florida, in general has been a magnet for individuals and families looking to relocate from other states, particularly the northwest and midwest regions.  Residents from states such as New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Ohio and Pennsylvania have continually been among the top contributors to Florida’s domestic migration.

This migration trend has also been observed in both Sarasota and Manatee Counties.  The appeal of Florida’s warm climate, tax advantages and diverse lifestyle options continues to draw people from various parts of the country, seeking a change of scenery and higher quality of life. Sarasota and Manatee counties boast a high quality of life, thanks to their beautiful beaches, vibrant cultural scene and abundant recreational opportunities.  The area is renowned for its cultural attractions, including theater, art galleries and music festivals.  With a variety of shopping centers, restaurants and outdoor activities, residents can enjoy a well rounded lifestyle.

One of the most significant advantages of Florida’s real estate market is the absence of state income tax.  This stands in stark contrast to many states that have much higher tax burdens.  Florida’s tax friendly environment not only provides financial relief but also enables homeowners to maximize their earnings.

Florida has been a popular destination for not only domestic, but also international migrants for various reasons, including its warm climate, diverse economy and retirement options.

Florida has significant population of immigrants from various countries.  Historically, Florida has seen substantial immigration from Latin American and Caribbean Countries, including Cuba, Puerto Rico, Haiti and the Dominican Republic.  The state also attracts immigrants from Central and South America, such as Venezuela, Colombia and Brazil.
