So, how many people exactly are we talking about here?
Buckle up, because this might make your metaphorical flip flops fly off. Estimates suggest that in the past two years alone, a whopping 763,500 people have decided to trade their snow shovels for sunscreen. That's like adding a whole new city the size of Orlando every year!
QuickTip: Read with curiosity — ask ‘why’ often.
Translation: Florida's population is exploding faster than a firework on the Fourth of July.
Tip: Take mental snapshots of important details.

Reminder: Focus on key sentences in each paragraph.

- Sunshine and Warmth: Let's face it, when was the last time you heard someone complain about having constant beach weather?
- Taxes, Taxes, Glorious Taxes: Florida boasts no state income tax, which might explain why people are lining up to become honorary gators.
- The Power of Retirement: Florida is a haven for retirees, offering a slower pace of life and plenty of golf courses to perfect that swing.
Basically, Florida is the ultimate "I'm outta here!" destination.
QuickTip: The more attention, the more retention.
Is there any end in sight to this migration madness?
Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure: Florida's gonna need a whole lot more Publix subs to feed this ever-growing crowd.
Maybe they'll even need to invent a new dance craze to accommodate all the newcomers – The Florida Shuffle perhaps?
