    Having work very hard doing all my do diligence to keep my location private, your channel is pushed front & center. You asking for input is not unnoticed.
    A 7 month working vacation made a turn. I have been here for about thirty years . Always wanting to go home but it's never the right time, the right deal... on and on. So here I am backed in a corner. Welcome to Tampa Florida. Is there a better place to go? Let me know.

    I just love the weather in Florida. The summer is hot, but you can enjoy the pool or beaches and life outside. I love to go for long walks with my wife in the evening during/after sunset. The winters are incredible, sunny days not too hot. I mean, in my book, great weather all year around. Really lovely. I don't understand why people complain. Oh well, I moved from Chicago, months of cold weather, cloudy most of the year and lots of snow... LOL

      I think if you are low or middle income, it is getting more difficult to maintain in Florida. The cost of rent, food, insurance etc, is increasing. It is pricing many of us out. If you make a six figure income, go for it. Best Wishes.

    I just moved from Chicago and I would agree about the crime (Safety definitely a pro). I have never worried about my car being broken into or stolen. There are questionable neighborhoods for sure but they are fairly isolated. A couple of other cons: 1) Quality of water: the drinking water is filled with sulfur and is disgusting. I would budget $3-$5K in a water softener for your home and 2) Lack of entertainment options: if you are looking to see your favorite act touring the country, they will usually go to Orlando and Miami but never to Tampa. There are no independent movie theaters (even AMC does not have even one theater that they would consider "independent"). The art venues are okay; I've been to a few but would probably never go again or buy a membership.

    • @trulivingtampa

      San Diego is really beautiful and where I saw my first palm tree, but tbh, St Pete is very much the same with its numerous beaches. Lots of art, music, good restaurants, too. We’re pretty flat, but surrounded by water;) Lots of water sports. Springs nearby.

    I need to decide on going to law school in either Miami or Tampa this year. Do you have anything for a comparison video? There is a lot of Tampa info on RUclips but not enough channels for Miami.

    • @Linda-mj2wv
      @Linda-mj2wv 4 месяца назад +3

      If you are thinking about Law school, think about where you want to work. You always network starting in school. And you must know Miami is extremely aggressive. Where Tampa is more mid-America values. These are the most important things to consider.

    Which areas in Tampa have less COCKROACHES issue? I absolutely despise them. I can wrestle a gator but those little creatures give me shivers down my spine. I am also a clean freak. So if I see that bug in my kitchen i will have to wash everything with extremely hot water. I am ok with lizards and other bugs though. 😂

    In terms of traffic and driving, nearly all transplants are slow. Not just the old people, who are far fewer than the popular stereotype. Folks of all ages are slower necessarily, many times to a ridiculous extent. Freeways and expressways are built for driving fast, so speed up or drive somewhere else. You are not the hall monitor. If you're driving at what you consider to be a reasonable speed and someone wants to pass you, move over. You will not die if you drive faster than 40-45mph. You will not spontaneously spin out of control if you drive faster than 35 while it's raining. And if you don't like aggressive Floridians tailgating you, go faster. This is our home and just because you can legally move here doesn't prevent you from being a jerk for disruptive, oblivious driving. If you move to a new place and are unwilling to adapt, you're just rude and nobody wants you here.
