Ok, I'm thinking about moving to Florida in a couple years after my house gains a bit more equity. Connecticuts winters suck, our taxes are way to high and I think Florida may be the place to go. Any one live there now? I'll be a licensed massage therapist by the time I'm ready and will be starting school for LPN so I think I'll be set for employment. Also we're self employed in construction so I would assume that would be a plus. Any feedback would be great!!![]()
Ive spent alot of time in the clearwater beach, tampa area. It is great. You can also consider southern Cali, the weather is not as humid![]()

I live in Destin, FL. It's on the panhandle. We just got hit by a few hurricanes. Hurricanes are fun. Fun like voluntary amputation.
Yeah powerman just moved here. Ive been here in south florida for about 4 years, came down from Mass, I like it. Cant speak about the other parts of florida though, havent spent much time there. Feel free to give me a massage anytime![]()

Florida is all cool but boy, their summers are awful. I'm going to Miami this week to visit friends- I've never been there in July so we'll see what that's like.

I've lived in Tampa for my entire life and I despise it. The only redeeming value to Florida is our beaches and perhaps the theme parks.
We get all the trashy people that nobody else wants.![]()
My guess is 90 with isolated thunderstorms and 100% humidity... I didnt check the weather report but every day is the same in the summerOriginally Posted by TwiloMike

Not to mention that Florida is just plain boring to look at. T-shirt shops, orange groves and a definite lack of elevation. Our tallest point in Florida is like a few hundred feet.
Dood! You live in NYC! That kind of weather happens here in the summer, just not every day of the summer all summer long. I would love to move to Miami but it's the summer+hurricanes keeping me from doing it. I don't want to feel like Dorothy... ever.Originally Posted by XxH0LyWaRsxX

I live in florida and i have to agree with nuts (i live in tampa/brandon area). Nothing much to see here once you go to all the amusment parks and beaches it's all the same here. Oh an dthe summers are freaking crazy hot not to mention add 90+ percent humidity and you are melting.

I moved to Florida..then to Cali....Now I'm moving back to St. Pete/Tampa...
I guess that makes me trash...
I think if you grow up in a place it becomes Old hat real quick..
I spent time in Ohio (20yrs) Tennessee(2 yrs) Florida(2 yrs)
I've had every climate you can imagine.
Florida is very flat I'll give you that..But it became my home.
I'l never ever ever move back To Ohio...ever....Tennesee was awesome.
Florida was awesome....California can suck a big ****ing ****covered ******* dry and cram a pumpkin sized horsepecker in it's ****ing ****ity **** eyeball.
Out of the night that covers me,Black as the Pit from pole to pole,I thank whatever gods may be for my unconquerable soul. In The fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance my head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears looms but the horror of the shade And yet the menace of the years finds, and shall find, me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate how charged with punishments the scroll,I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.

dorothy was in kansas in a tornado thoughOriginally Posted by TwiloMike
florida has alot of those to
Nothing worth mentioning though. The only tornado that caused any real damage was back in 98 in Orlando, that killed around 50 people. It was truly a freak event, I don't think anything has ever compared to it. Most of our tornadoes are small F1's that only touch down briefly.Originally Posted by briancurran01
For example: people in Ohio run from stuff all the time.
Old folks run from the annual ice age...EVERYONE runs from tornadoes..and you get no warning. I evacuated all 4 times last year to go party elsewhere.

I lived in Tampa for a number of years and really liked it. My family and some really good friends still live there. For me, locality isn't as relevant as relationships that I have forged with people in any particular environment. Florida is a cool place to live. There are lot's cool people there. Plus, I like hot weather. It gives me a chance to show off the hard work I put into bettering my physical self. I'm so vain, I probably think this song is about me....
