Florida vs California...

I live in FL and really like it. California seems like a better place to live if money is no issue, but if it is you are better here. For what you pay in Cali you can live very well in this state.

Do you really want to deal with Hurricanes year in, and year out and a TON of humidity?

True...but I can run away from a hurricane..and I can't run from earthquakes..
I figure that natural disaster stuff is draw..
plus, the place I'm looking at is on the Tampa area..

The humidity..yes..that sucks...and the bugs too...these are all things I'm considering..

Weather here in Socal is pretty fuckin good...but it does get too hot in the summer...and the air is so dirty..

And your town does not have any of those? Come on bro! The only place in this EARTH that does not have any of those freaks is the CEMETERY. IS that where you live?
 
Having grown up and surfed in So Cal, the water temps are much warmer in Florida. When I was living in Nor Cal, the water was 66F in August in Santa Cruz, ouch!

But I don't know that I could handle the humidity in Florida. Last time I was in Miami in May at 10:00 PM on SoBe it was 80F air temp and around 80 humidity level, much too high for my liking. So humid I didn't even want to drink, just runs out as sweat.

Los Angeles is full of patrol cars. And if that's not enough, there's the news & police choppers up in the air 24/7. Those birds have more flying time than some 3rd country Air Force.
 
Quote from PohPoh:

Am considering a move out to FLA...I want to buy a house, or at least rent one for a reasonable price...

Real estate remains retarded out here in LALAland..

and while it may fall in FLA (looking around the suburbs of Tampa), nominally it can't fall as much as it can here..

Anyways, just wanted to hear what you guys think of living in FLA vs CA...

Cheers big ears..

For as little as 250K (I'm talking Port Ste. Lucie ect) one can own a own with a pool.

I'll second the Port St. Lucie vote....there are some dirt, dirt cheap homes there.....maybe even .50 on the dollar.....the local economy there has few jobs & is getting hammered
