I will be moving to southern Florida in the next 6 or 7 months. I am just wondering what the average cost of living for a single 20 year old male in the military.
The cost of living has gone down somewhat over the past year or so.
If you qualify for BAH, you may do well to rent a condo with some buddies. Rents have gone down for certain areas where real estate is very depressed.
You should be OK.
The cost of living in FL is far cheaper than living in the Northeast. However I did see an article suggesting that Miami and South Beach were among the most expensive in the country.
Steer clear of the glamor spots and you will do just fine.
