My theory was that rich old guys came here and imported young hot stupid girls and then proceeded to breed them for generations resulting in the population now found here. Just one of my many theories of how so many dumb people ended up in such a beautiful place.... |

Yes the women are all beautiful, the sun always shines and it rains once a day. No potholes and no winter + beaches. Love it but wish we could trade some of the people. Maybe a National People Draft and just trade people like sports teams? |

Yes. It is terrible here. Absolutely god awful. Whatever you do, please do not come down here unless it is to visit Disney for 3 days, pump thousands of your dollars into the economy, and then leave.
When you turn 70 and you decide to move here, go directly to Naples or The Villages. Do not pass GO, do not collect $200, and do not settle in any other location other than the aforementioned areas. Sell your car that you no longer need, and buy a golf cart. Thanks for your cooperation, Kyle |

I do miss the mountains and the curves, however, snow is something I don't miss. Driving to work and back I think of Rt 218 between West Point and Cornwall NY

We travel around the country a lot and we've determined that the worst thing about living in FL is that it takes an 8 hour drive to get to a part of the country with other interesting features like mountains... or hills. The Bay Area is a stark difference from the Dade Metro area (Miami). Having lived in both areas, I much prefer Tampa to Miami.

Mr. Tonka - could not agree more with everything in your post. I have the benefit of property in Asheville, NC (Mtn, hiking, snow, change of seasons, etc...) as well as SW FL (mild winters, beach access, relaxation...)
The problem are the damn Floridiots that come to the curvy Mtn roads and piss us off whilst trying to drive fast |

In all seriousness though, Florida is great depending on your needs. Metro areas will be better if you're single or without a family. Think DT Ft Lauderdale or Brickell maybe even SoBe or Sunny Isles (last two are $$) but there are also more suburban areas just outside of the major cities. I live in Coconut Creek, just south of Boca Raton, about 15 minutes to Ft Lauderdale and 35-40 to Miami Downtown. The perfect location, I think.
Weather is awesome normally (forget about June-September too hot and rainy) but besides that it's great, and I'll take the sweat over snow any day. Home Values are going up all over SFL! Hope my Bimmerpost bros don't hesitate to reach out when it comes time to buy or sell down here! P.S. Born and Raised in FL MIA(Kendall was nice) -> Cape Coral (god's waiting room) along with most of SWFL -> Boca Raton area.

So finally Florida is not that bad. No Chicanos, no monsters or gangsters, no Cowboys, no legal pot selling, no snow and, but lots of sun, nice weather, good roads, nice houses, not too many taxes, nice MILFS, nice girls, nice strip clubs, nice restaurants, nice partying and nice beaches. What else can you dream of? Ohm I was forgetting NICE HURRICANES!!!! They haven't been here in years!!!! Knock on wood!!!!
Florida is paradise on earth!!!! Compared to other places |

Back when I was a young lad I was down here on vacation July-August 1992 and left about two weeks before Andrew hit. Since then nothing earth shattering has happened to SE Florida but the law of averages may have other opinions
