Madison, Florida is a quiet, small‑town base with Southern charm, a walkable historic core, affordable short‑term housing options and easy access to nearby outdoor recreation—ideal for a low‑stress multi‑week contract where you can actually relax and recharge.
When you want more action, Tallahassee (state capital with universities, arts, restaurants and an airport) and Valdosta, GA (regional shopping and dining) are both convenient day‑trip destinations, so you get peaceful living plus access to bigger‑city amenities.
