Location independence is something that I'm striving for, too. I don't know what part of the state you plan on moving to, but I'm sure you can find some decent schools in Florida.

Hopefully we'll be in the same situation in a few years. I have to get out of Michigan because the winters are killing me. Hopefully in a year or two my career will give me the flexibility to move and we can move and settle down somewhere better before it's time for our daughter to start school. I envy your situation.

I agree that the schools in general are bad, but we've identified areas with highly rated schools. We certainly wouldn't go somewhere without the option of decent schools. And there is an international airport in both locations we've considered, too. <br><br>But an overwhelming factor for all of us is climate. My children and I all have very sensitive skin that really, really suffers from a cold climate, and being a southerner by birth I miss the mild winters and don't think I'd miss the snow (and if I did, I'll come visit NYC in January!). @Curmudgeon: We've done a bit of research and visited our target location(s) a couple of times (there are two, although one is far, far higher on our list than the other).

I'd argue that while on a whole, Florida doesn't fare all that well for schools, there are certainly areas that have quite impressive public schools. Good luck with everything!
