Orlando. I live in Philly full time but I have a condo down there. I just love it!
Oh, but out of your list, I would definitely pick Clearwater.

ClearWater Beach Florida is really nice but expensive so the next best place in Florida that’s cheap is Treasure Island Florida, It’s very nice as well but 25% of the cost.
Check it out.

Since the housing bubble burst, much of Florida has affordable homes to buy because so many are in foreclosure. However, if you’re looking to rent, you’ll do better staying away from the major cities (Orlando, Miami, Tampa).
Gainesville is a college town ,and that’s about it. It’s not too close to the ocean either. Ocala is similarly far from the ocean. St. Pete is on the gulf, but pretty crowded and near Tampa. Not too familiar with the other areas.

If I was moving to Florida I would look at Jacksonville, it on the water its an up and coming area the public transportation is great and right now there are some opportunities for jobs there. Good luck I presently live in Miami and I’m thinks of moving to north Florida.

I like the west coast of Florida, though you may need to get south of St. Petersburg area to guarantee the temperatures you want all winter. I experienced temperatures close to, or at, freezing in St. Pete’s in December (that was in 2003). Fort Myers Beach area was comfortable in January, but you might need long pants outside at night sometimes. So I would suggest Fort Myers and south. I liked Sarasota but did not particularly like Bradenton. Maybe I didn’t spend enough time there to really get to know the area, but that’s how I felt. If you go farther north in Florida than Fort Myers you may not have the winter temperatures you are looking for. My personal choice would be Key West or Cocoa Village. Key West has good public transportation, as does the Cocoa Village area. There is a little town in central Florida, on the Okeechobee Waterway that I think would be a great place to live – Labelle, a quiet sleepy little town – but you would need your own transportation, or do like my husband and I did – become avid bicycle riders. However, by my definition Florida is hot and humid in the summer, no matter where you are.
