Wrong. Florida is really cheap in 97% of the state.
Seasons are pretty muted in Florida. No snow, and while there are some pockets of cold temperature weeks here and there during the winter, Florida feels relatively same-y year-round. Well, unless you're in the peak of summer, where the heat and humidity are high, but it's prime season for hitting the beach or dipping in a pool.
Beach areas tend to be, which is the OP's goal. Somewhere like Tallahassee would be cheaper while still being a good sized city with plenty of job opportunities, but probably isn't what they are looking for.
Oh, I'm used to that life. I lived in South Florida for a few years and loved it, but I don't think I could ever convince my wife to move back.
In fact it's understated. Florida hates Florida more than the rest of the country.
Savana and Charleston are nice. Myrtle Beach is fine, it reminded me a bit of the Jersey Shore except in the south though.
75 degrees and breezy this week. Dont know about active volcano. We have perfect weather all the time except july-september when it is like said active volcano
not quite. Jacksonville Beach? Yes. Saint Petersburg (Not surrounding suburbs) Yes. Miami (if you have money) yes. Orlando (downtown only) yes.
I can't swim. When I go scuba diving, I just sink to the bottom and stay there until someone on the surface hauls me up. /s
Well, I don't know about that. Maybe we can just switch apartments. I hope you get the chance to move away though. That's how I felt about East TN.
Any particular issues with the suburbs around St. Pete? This thread had me looking at houses in Gulfport that seemed very affordable. Is it just a lack of things to do? It seems pretty close to downtown St. Pete for fun activities and St. Pete Beach for the water.
Gulfport is actually great. It's one of the oldest areas of the region and there's a nice market street there right on the water. By suburbs I was thinking more about the hellscapes of Largo, Pinellas Park, places north of St. Pete
Yup they'll rob you blind at traffic lights. Come up and bite you in the ass when you're sitting on your toilet minding your business. It's very scary down here all over the the big ass state, it's everything you've read and feared over on the internet. The gators a pretty racist, and as a black man I fear for my life every time I see them at the Tampa zoo.
We live less than a mile from the beach here in Pensacola and the houses were mostly cheaper than Birmingham AL suburbs besides beachfront houses.
2bdrm apartments where I live in Cali are $3800, 1bdrm $2400. I grew up in SoFla and had a really nice apartment 1bdrm in Palm Beach for 850. I'd die for a 1500 2bdrm
