@IRJ know anyone to help out with this task:
https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/1502743-need-service-the-villages-florida
I don't really know anyone in that area. It's about 2.5 hours from me.
Worth a shot.
It's known as a retirement area and it's pretty rural. I don't think there is much IT out there.

That's how everyone describes Florida in general.

As a Brit, can confirm - It's just full of Retired people except for like, 2 weeks of Spring Break stuff isn't it?

Unless you are near the coastline, FL is a rural nightmare, full of geriatric Canadians and gators.

Not too far off. My parents have a house down by Daytona. It seems like it is full of retired people and the service industry surrounding them. It also has a bunch of "NASCAR Fans" as I politely call them.

Spring break to US locations is rather sad. Anyone who can goes outside the country.

TBH I don't even know what Spring break actually is...I assume its a school holiday where everyone just gets wasted...but that's just from watching american teen films etc..?

It's a new thing since I was in college. People didn't really do it then, it was just starting to be an idea. Spring break is a break in the winter (um.. what?) that in recent years has turned into college students going to cheap foreign beach locations in huge masses to get totally wasted where they would be underage to drink in the US since college students can't drink in the US (creating the massive alcoholism and binge drinking problems known in the US and unknown elsewhere.)

Nailed it. Most colleges have this break around the same time, so partying happens.

I remember people in college talking about going way for Spring Break... I always worked if there was a job available.

I never went to a college that had a break. So it didn't exist for us at all.

We always headed to the mountains to go fishing for spring break.

I tihnk so. It may vary by state. But I know in Georgia, you can buy a rifle / handgun at 18.

Yeah, but many areas are worse than others with retirees. Where I live there isn't a huge number of older people like you would find in St. Petersburg (Home of the newly wed and nearly dead). As someone already mentioned a good number of the retirees are Canadian. Which is also the reason Florida hockey teams have a decent size market compared to other places.
You can basically break Florida up into 3 sections. South Georgia (which is anywhere North of Orlando). Lot's of nascar fans as someone put it. Central Florida (my area... Orlando, Space Center, Beaches, etc.). South Florida ( Miami style living with big pocket books).
