Fine says snowbirds will have a lot more to consider this coming winter as the price of accommodation, groceries and dining out have all risen.

He also says snowbirds may opt for more cost-effective destinations outside of the U.S., including Mexico, Costa Rica and Belize and do a four-month stay rather than the typical six.
