[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suggest either St. John's County (St. Augustine) or Sarasota County (40 min south of Tampa) which have the top two FL school districts according to Niche, they also appear on other top schools lists. The price of housing is skyrocketing in FL because so many people, both red and blue, are moving there. However, relatively cheap housing can still be found in these areas if you are comparing to the DC area. Despite many ignorant opinions to the contrary on DCUM I find FL to be a delightful place to live and I am staunchly democrat. Like other states (Virginia for example) the rural areas are almost completely red and the urban areas are almost completely blue. Registered Republicans in FL just recently started to barely outnumber registered Democrats after many years of the opposite. So it's pretty purple basically. With the warm climate, decent schools in certain areas, and lower COL it's not too tough to ignore or tolerate whatever politics or political opinions you have a problem with and just live your own life.[/quote] Don't know about the Sarasota County schools, but the idea that St. Johns County schools are the best in Florida is horrifying. I have family that lives there, and those schools are atrocious. The St. Johns County school system wold probably be the worst school system between Baltimore and Richmond. [/quote] You are a bitter, spiteful liar. What's #1 on this list? https://www.niche.com/k12/search/best-school-districts/s/florida/ [/quote] No one is disputing that they are good schools relative to the other schools in Florida.[/quote] St Johns is good overall. There are good quality schools in FL. I am from FL. But they are magnets or in ritzy areas. The areas of St Johns that are the wealthiest have good schools which honest is the same as Langley. Kids graduate if they put the effort and attend national schools. There’s drugs and bad influences in every “good public school”. So maybe you just know the losers from certain schools. Sarasota has one top school but it’s for gifted kids. If you make it there, then you’re gold. But it’s not public. There’s good ones in West Palm and every major city in FL. Average schools aren’t great. But no they aren’t Baltimore material. [/quote]
