[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I second the Winter Park rec.[/quote]

I was going to recommend Winter Park too based on OP's desire for a small downtown area, but I'm not sure whether 600k can get a SFH.  Also, traffic around I-4 can be pretty bad though.  I grew up in Lake Mary, which isn't too far from there, and it was nice, but super suburban.

The public schools always seemed fairly decent to me as a kid, but maybe not as high achieving as some of the Fairfax County schools where we live now.  Regardless, I went to FSU and saved a ton of money (not the only decent university in FL despite what a UF poster will have you believe) and I had multiple top tier law schools offer me nearly full ride scholarships.  So I don't think FL schools are as bad as PPs claim.

That being said, I have no desire to move back because there are many more career opportunities here and I love all the nearby cultural amenities.  But if you can telework and enjoy a more laid back lifestyle down there, the COL can't be beat![/quote]
