...uhh maybe anywhere but South Florida. S Fl is getting to be ridiculously expensive, especially if you want to live near the beach, in a neighborhood that's not the slums.

South Florida != All of Florida.

Have lived in a number of different areas of Florida (along the east coast, the panhandle, etc), and have a number of family members that live in a number of additional places. On average, housing in Florida is relatively inexpensive.

All states have their prime locations. The options for living near a beach in state of Florida are nearly limitless.

Pacific Palisades, Carmel, Laguna Niguel just to name a few. Come to Cali. Beachfront property is dirt cheap.

The coast of Viet Nam. I understand a person can live like a King or Queen, with a full array of servants, for $1000 a month.
