[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You could not pay me to live in humidity, heat and bug infested Florida. That's below the gnat line--it's like living in the DC summer but with more bugs, for at least double the amount of time. And it's only going to get hotter. [/quote] I live in FL full time for a few years now, I just got back from a visit to NoVa to see friends and family and I saw way more bugs there than I ever see in FL. Quite a few of you people commenting here sound like dull brained morons in your odd opinions and dense generalizations about FL.[/quote] I lived in south Georgia full time for decades and went to Florida frequently during the summer and now live in DC. Most everyone in DC is from somewhere else, and I am from about 20 miles north of the gnat line, thank goodness. I call bs on your response, unless you live in an area of Florida right on the coast, which is not "affordable" to most people. [/quote] I live about 5 miles from one of the top ranked beaches in the country so yes, on the coast. I bought a 2/2 condo here in late 2020 and my total mortgage payment and condo fee is less than $1200 mo. It would cost someone quite a bit more than that if they bought the same condo now but is still way more affordable than a similar nice condo anywhere in the DC metro area, and way more fun to live here. Yes there are bugs, but it's not the buggy, gator infested, sweltering hell hole so many seem to think it is. Doesn't matter though, if that illusion keeps more people from moving here I'm all for it, we're full.[/quote]
