OP here. I thought Florida was great when I compared it to living in DC. Neither place is great for me personally. And Florida is no longer affordable. I can live comfortably in the Midwest. I can travel here if I want. Living here year round is not fun. |
Which Midwest city, OP? |
For us, we plan to rent short term during the cold months in DC. Do you feel that is acceptable? |
In Florida currently
would never move here. Unfortunately DD transfer work We have been here for 3 days. 2 bicyclists hit by cars no helmets worn. Yes, in these cases they would have helped. 1 motorcyclist same. 3 whole trumpers on the beach, idiots one will need a new car LOL. One ran over their own Yetti cooler, costly but fun to watch. Dogs left outside no water chained up Food expired in Grocery store over a month Winn Dixie and Publix. Unfortunately, we are staying a week... ugh. |
Where exactly is this? I've been living in FL for over 3 years and never seen any of the above. I'm not high income either. |
I've met some awesome people in Miami but they all were gym rats or getting tummy tucks in their 20s (crazy!!!).
Just not my scene at all. |
Yeah weird. Florida’s a big state. You guys talk about it like it’s all the same. |
I’m glad for you! Sounds like a good decision. |
What part of Florida were you in? Miami and most of south florida is like 15% Jewish so probably not there. But again Florida’s a big state. Making blanket statements about a state w 22 million people is asinine. |
Kind of makes me wonder where exactly the dumb narrow minded people live, all indicators here point to DC area rather than Florida. |
The bigger cities are better. |
I've lived here 7 years and never seen any of this...are you in some rural panhandle area? |
I’m generally pretty numb to the news but the stories about the women missing the abortion ban cut off are really getting to me today. It’s so cruel. |
Sucks to be a woman in Florida. |
According to Forbes hundreds of thousands of people, obviously many of them women, move to Florida everyday. Clearly many women are happy there. I could be wrong but I don't think most people make home location decisions based on where they can get an abortion easily. I am a Democrat and I am pretty unhappy with our idiot Florida governor and the crap he's doing but I am thankful his days as governor are numbered. Also glad the country saw through him easily when he ran for president. The 6 week abortion law could easily mean the end of him here. https://www.forbes.com/home-improvement/moving-services/annual-moving-trend-forecast/#:~:text=Florida%20and%20Texas%20are%20the,states%20people%20were%20moving%20to. |
