This town has about 17,000 residents, but the population almost doubles during the winter months, when Midwesterners flock to the city for refuge from the cold. The city features resort style living all year long, with a sunny, warm climate that doesn’t see many rainy days.

The downtown area is packed with condominiums, and many homes in the area are only occupied seasonally, though they are often owned outright by those who stay in them for a few months a year.
