Florida

Why would anyone ever want to move to Florida? Vacation during the winter sure, but actually LIVE there?
It's constantly got hurricanes which they are never prepared for, you'd think after so many hurricanes they'd put together a response plan or infrastructure that works, the summers are horrible and humid, there's all kinds of crazy people and crazy politics, there's a lot of crime, the schools are terrible, and now it's getting more expensive. Oh, and the traffic. |
| I know a person who moved there because the private school in dc was requiring her to get her kid vaccinated for Covid |
Damn |
| OP is dumber than a box of rocks. |
So you move there if you’re MAGA? |
| I moved there because I had a lot of relatives living there, I wanted a break from shoveling snow and worrying about slipping on ice, and I was desperate to get out of my parents house and this was somewhere they were willing to let me move (see relatives living there). I became even more depressed there after a couple of years and ultimately moved. Not having to shovel sure was nice though. |
You must live in Florida. I agree with OP, FL sucks. I've lived there, been there 20x for work or to visit friends. Flat, hot, buggy, soulless,conservative, blech. |
Yeah, there are no liberals in Florida. None. |
| I agree, Florida gives me the heebee jeebies. |
|
There are many people who love hot weather and hate cold weather.
There are many people who like having no income tax. It is a lot cheaper to live there than in most northern states. There are those who love living within easy drive of many, many beaches and having year-round weather where you can go to the beach. |
It’s great since you left. |
Correction. You move there if you’re MAGA. Or don’t mind living near MAGA. |
|
I agree with OP 100%.
It seems they mostly like the views? I would not put up with the physical and social environment there, to save taxes. People seem willing to sell their souls (see Republicans) for that prize. |
Yes, because half the country live in Florida. |
|
Climate change and the horrible weather for half the year deters me.
I think there are some nice cities there -- Tampa, St Augustine -- but I don't think those places will last long with climate change. |
