    Default Who Else HATES Florida???

    Ok I have to ask.....Who else hates living in Florida, specifically South Florida? I know its a fine place to visit but living here and especially dancing here is absolute torture!

    I'm leaving in a few months thank goodness but I'm curious as to who else has come to there senses and is either leaving Florida or making plans to?

    I've grown to hate it here. I loved it when I first came, but 8 years of working with the dregs of society, traffic getting worse, nobody speaking english,everything being insanesly expensive..I'm done. Which sucks because hubby loves it here.

    We're hanging in for a few more years until the housing and mtg industry goes back up so we will maximize profit on our home,and in the meantime we will be deciding where to go next.

    I've always wanted to live in Cali for some reason...it just calls to me like FL called to him. NOT LA though...more central or northern Cali. So we'll take some trips out there in the next few years and figure out where we want to go.

    I feel the exact same way you do, Candice. South Florida is a wonderful place to visit, maybe even stay a few weeks and if we actually had tourists coming through, it would be an alright place to dance but I'm so ready to go back up to Baltimore. Maybe just come back to South Florida for like a month or two once a year.

    California has all the exact same problems, Cam, but it's even more expensive!

    I hate Florida too. My mom loves the beach so we had to go to Florida at least once or twice a year when I was a kid, and I had to go there a few times in college. I've avoided it ever since. It's too hot, the roaches are six inches long and they fly (*shudder*), there's nothing to eat but seafood, and I can't walk from my motel to the corner market without getting a sunburn. No, not my favorite place in the world.

    Come live in Canada, and just be a snowbird and vacation in Florida for a couple weeks every winter. Works for us

    I know...but I"m hoping that central/northern Cali wont be as bad. And I cant explain it..I just know I NEED to live in Cali for awhile. I've felt like that since I was little.I'm not a fan of LA...nice to visit(well..it was when you were there to take me on drunken Hollywood tours!!)but I would never in a million years live there.

    NorCal has all the same problems too, unless you're going way north (Redding, etc), at which point it's pretty much just Oregon with higher taxes.

    Cameron, I think you would like Arizona. My sister lives there and she's never been happier.

    I like the thought of AZ...but I never want to live more then a 1/2 hour drive of the ocean. It keeps me sane(well..at least stops me from being completley INsane!LOL)

    I lived in Florida before (Sarasota) and I have also visited my parents several times when they were living there. I don't really care for it... but I've always, ALWAYS wanted to explore The Keys. I've heard it's COMPLETELY different from the rest of the state. I just like island life. Period.

    I understand. That is probably the only thing I will miss about Florida once I am gone. I rarely go to the beach but every so often I drive by the ocean for a quick pick me up.

    Although there isn't an ocean close by, My sister is constantly reminding me that Arizona has beautiful lakes and 33 streams, creeks, and rivers located throughout its high country.

    I love Florida for vacation purposes but I could never reside there permanently.

    Candice will you be moving to Arizona ?

    *raises hand*

    i can't even tell you how sick i am of puffed-out-chest redneck boys and their obnoxious white trash breeding-like-rabbits wives.

    there's so much ignorance and violence in this state it's ridiculous. between working for the boys and girls clubs/the school district (dealing with terrible parents) and dancing.... i've had enough of this state and it's people.

    i'm a native though. so i've spent almost 29 (in may) years in this place.

    No, although I visit Scotsdale quite often. I would live there but now that my family has all relocated to P.A. I need to be close to them now. Dads getting older and not well and my mom can't handle it all by herself. It sucks when your parents get older. Kinda scarey too.

    Yep! Add to that illegal immigrants who REFUSE to learn English or follow any of our laws(and blather CONSTANTLY about how much better their home country is and how they hate the US..WTF?? I'm so tired of hearing this..then GO HOME), and all the wanna be gangbanger ghetto losers and Its like a miracle if you find anyone thats semi normal in this state. I swear you should have to have a passport to enter the state...

    I couldn't agree more. I can understand and speak basic spanish and when I'm in Miami it is extremely helpful....if not a necessity but It's ashame how so many people in South East Florida don't even TRY to learn English. I understand it's difficult to learn anything new but the only way to assimilate into the american culture is to throw yourself into.

    One more thing I have to add to my rant....... I know I've said this before but, the bugs are bigger than a new born baby, the humidity is gross....you constantly feel like you have a layer of slime on your body, And it feels like no one down here gives a crap about the holidays.

    Florida native here! I'd love to settle down there someday when I'm not dancing. But if you're a dancer IT SUCKS in comparison to most of the country. Contact is high, money is low. I surf and scuba, so I miss it now that I'm landlocked.

    If you like hot weather and the island life, you'll dig it. If not, you're better off elsewhere.

    Oh, and there is NO point in living in mainland, interior Florida away from the ocean. It's an armpit.
