There is no way I can even fathom having a garage like half of these people are posting, it is almost surreal. That is why I am saying everyone must be a millionaire or live in the cheapest places of the US. Come on people, what is it?

Property is still pretty cheap in FL. I bought my current house when it came up on a short sale three years ago and put a lot of work into it. The "garage space" had been used for living since it was built in the 80s, so I built a 28x36 with a loft on the empty lot attached to the property. House is 2100 sq ft with a pool and I might have 180k in the whole deal. I'll never get that out of it, but I intend to die here.
I still own the house next door and my parents live in it.
The community is not gated, but I could never get away with living in one of those places anyway. I just keep big aggressive dogs and they scare the hell out people. Only one or two problems in the dozen years I've lived in the neighborhood.
