Florida is home to stunning beaches, iconic attractions, and warm weather all year round. People love the southern state for another reason -- it's rather cheap compared to the rest of the nation, according to HomeSnacks.

That's partly why the Sunshine State is one of the best spots for retirement. But you don't have to be ready to retire to enjoy what Florida has to offer. That's why HomeSnacks put out a list of the most affordable cities and towns in the state.

According to the website, the cheapest place in Florida is...

Live Oak!

Here's what the website said about this northern Florida city:

"Agriculture, timber, and technology have been keeping the economy in this little Suwannee County city moving in right direction.The median income, here, is close to $47,859 with average home prices up around $110,600. So it’s no surprise that Live Oak scored off our charts in terms of snackability. They are the eighth most affordable city when we looked at home price to income ratio. Affordability = happiness. We get why your city’s motto is 'A Caring Community.'"

Here were the Top 10 cheapest Florida cities, according to HomeSnacks:

  1. Live Oak
