Why people move to Bonita Springs

Florida’s draw is simple: no state income tax, year-round sunshine, and no income tax on retirement income. In Bonita Springs specifically, the median home runs about $545,000, and homes sell in a median of 89 days. Once you buy and homestead, Florida’s Save Our Homes cap limits how fast your property taxes can rise. The trade-off to plan for is home insurance, which runs above the national average — we break that down in the cost-of-living guide below.
