Lots do. When I lived in Florida I would hear all the time from the snow birds there that they didn't want to pay taxes for the local kids' education, they already paid for theirs up North. A real twisted version of "I got mine".

If it's income tax, then only the place that the money is earned gets that. If it's property taxes, again it's location dependent. So, it really depends on which pot they are complaining about.

Property taxes. Florida does not have income tax, plus snow birds is a name for retirees that have both a home up north and in Florida.

I'm aware of what a snowbird is.

Not local to Florida so their income tax law isn't really a concern for me.
