Many people move back FROM Florida, though....primarily because of the unbearable climate.

That was true some years ago. Sixty minutes did a story about that centered on a guy with a big mansion. I guess that its still true.

What I hated most about living in Florida was all the rude tourists. :|

College kids on Spring Break tend to be idiots.

Talk to me about the unbearable climate when you are freezing your fingers and toes in the sleety wind! :D

True, and folks in Florida are very bad drivers. I've seen a lot of fatal wrecks there.

Also I think most Florida cities have a high crime rate. Pensacola has a lot of gang activity and drug-related murders and crimes. There was a Biker's Club for The Outlaws up the road from my house. :|

Parts of Miami are bad. Parts of West Palm Beach are supposed to be bad, too. And parts of Jacksonville.

LOL....that's what people tell me after they move back from Florida: the climate

Also: think about the fact that you don't have to shovel 30 inches of snow. I had to do just that about three years ago....

But it also gets so miserably hot here (and in Georgia).

Do you prefer heat stroke or hypothermia? :lol:

You could modify the cold, at least, through clothes.

The heat. Not so much.

I've heard that Trump is leaving New York because everyone there hates him, which is probably part of it, along with escaping taxation. I also think it's because he thinks he can escape the charges brought against him by the New York state D.A..
