However, a report come out today annoucing that Florida population has actually shrunk by 58,000 people over the past 12 months, in other words, we are loosing 158 people per day.  This affects not just real estate but every facit of our ecomony.  Job losses is a major contributor to this, but also public policy has been sited a factor as well.
