Would you like to live in or travel to Florida?

I like Florida, but not enough to live there. It is beautiful there, but it's too hot, too many storms
and too many large bugs.

No.  There are too many people and too much crime.

I've been to Florida a few times but don't want to live there.  We have to deal with tornados where I live and would not want to have to worry about hurricanes.  It was beautiful though!

No. I don't like really humid weather. I bet winters are ok, but summer would be brutal.

No, my brother lives there and sure, it's great in the winter, no snow, ice, or sleet.  But the summers are way too hot and humid.  And the bugs are huge!

I have several relatives who live in Florida and I like to visit them there in the winter months, but I wouldn't want to live there because of the humid heat in the summer and the bad storms they get there. Not to mention bugs.

I was born in Florida and have lived here or 59 of my 61 years.  It is home to me and its funny when people say the negatives because I guess Floridians says the same about other states.  I lived in NC for two years and it was too cold for me and too hard to drive in the ice and snow.  I don't like the occasional hurricane but other places have worse tornado's I think.  Oh well I guess we all have our preferences or what we get used to.   8)

I have never been to Florida so I don't know what the environment or the neighborhood and surroundings will be but there is always challenges in everywhere we travel. I do know there are alligators, crocks, and my worst nightmare the snakes over there so I would decline to move there just for the snakes.

Maybe so.  But I know a lot of people who have moved away from Florida to get away from the high crime rate.  Every state, city, county, town, they all have their problems.  If you have people you have problems.  People are good at not seeing what goes on in their own back yard and can see all the bad other places and in reality the issues are the same.  I know a family that moved to my area and they came from Tampa and the reason they left was because there was a drive by shooting every night.  I can say I don't recon we have ever had a drive by shooting where I live. lol

I've never been to Florida but I wouldn't want to live there, but I will go some day with my daughter and visit the beach.

I have never really thought about visiting or living there for some reason. Just does not appeal to me.  Maybe some day I will visit, but I really do like living the Southwest, even if we do have a few dust storms The beaches are pretty every where. But give me the mountains.

Since I'm such a beach baby, I can really see myself down in Naples, Sanibel Island, or Marco Island.  If I lived there, this is where I'd be.
