Does Florida's sex offender registry have the strictest requirements in the country?

I don't know. Probably.

In general though the extremely punitive and draconian nature of sex offender registries in this country is an underdiscussed problem with our legal system, for some good reasons--nobody wants to be seen to take the side of pedophiles and DV perpetrators. But it's a one-size-fits-all status that almost irretrievably ruins your life and in at least some states is imposed on people who've committed innocuous (in less prurient parts of the world) crimes like streaking and public urination just as it is on your archetypal creepy priest or unkempt gym teacher. We don't need to go easier on rapists and pedophilies--quite the contrary--but we do need to start making much clearer legal and cultural distinctions between more and less dangerous offenders.

Florida has a lifetime requirement for all offenders, regardless of severity. A huge chunk of people who have to register never sexually abused any person at all.

The video about Miracle Village is mostly what I saw about it. While the colony was a one-of-a-kind idea, 130 people is like 0.2% of the state's sex offenders, so everyone else is just taking manual labor jobs and parking their trailer in an out-of-the-way location without a community of the similarly-situated. The video says it's one of the most restrictive, but maybe sex offenders in, say, Mississippi have a similar level of struggle. Their laws also look strict at a glance. Someone would have to go through every states' sex offender laws to rank them.
