      All of Florida sucks!
      1) overpopulated, get ready for long lines
      2) most deadly highways in America per square mile
      3) $140 / month in tolls using the sun pass
      4) CDD fees (community development district fees) on average is $160/month
      5) Highest HOA fees in America. $250/month
      6) $$$ everything is a “resort” with a gate
      7) highest house and car insurance in United States
      8) nothing is relaxing here, all hectic with cars going 100 mph while some doing 40, you want your kids driving here? They will die.
      9) no one speaks English….. it’s like a different country
      10) schools suck
      11) everything is flat down hill, roads are small and infrastructure crowded 24/7
      12) everyone in America wants to move here and housing in non existent including renting
      13) after being here for a year, I’m moving to s farm to buy 200 acres in the peaceful calm Midwest ….. my $750,000 home here cost $250k in Midwest and I get s basement.
      14) backyards are non existent … 5 feet maybe
      15) sun is ok, but waaaay over-rated. Rather have some nice winters… after being here bring on the cold….

      Yes. It’s hot. So take a shower in one of the 10 bathrooms you can now afford or float in your private pool. The homes cost less than a parking space in a parking deck in Harlem. That’s the realization that had that made us move back south from NYC. For less than the rent of our studio apartment- we can have a 8 bed 6.5 bath home 6 minutes to Disney world. The private schools also have no waitlists (and certainly not years long) and they cost a third as much. Sold. I’ll deal with the heat. At least now I’m in the AC in my Tesla vs schlepping my laundry down the street to the laundry mat while everything smells like summer garbage.

A moving truck rental agent recently told a friend of mine in New York State that one of their biggest problems is that there are ten moving trucks leaving New York for every one coming back. Thus, they are constantly short of rental trucks. Well, that about says it all doesn't it.

For the younger crowd it may seem dead at times. I’m considering moving to a bigger city like Charlotte or Atlanta and then eventually move back. I’m an engineer and the job market (at least in Columbia) is not all that great. It’s also not very diverse and people still seem to have an ‘old south’ way of thinking.

We are from Ohio and I find the cost of living to be similar. I do LOVE seeing all the cool cars down here and all the car shows :) My main side of living down here is the traffic. We live between Rt 75 and Rt 41 and it gets really backed up. I'm glad our town is getitng built up so we don't have to drive far to go where we want.

Florida is growing more and more each year with fortune 500 and 100 companies moving here due to no income tax and better services. August is a tough month here with the humidity and heat but otherwise from that it's a better deal than NC or NJ.

But my RE taxes were 15K a year in NY, couldn’t get from point a to point be without being stuck in a traffic jam. Expenses like food, electricity and gas were through the roof so I didn’t feel like I had a choice except to move. I happen to like the heat and hate the winter so that was another thing on the plus side for me. Also, my car needs way less maintenance down here and no salt and snow destroying my tires and finish on my car. I’ll deal with a hot summer for a few months to gain the benefit of 8 months of warm and sunny weather, it was a no brainer for me!

Do you know why it's flourishing ? Because many NYC financial moguls are moving here to the Brickell area. They run fiber to their homes and trade in Florida now due to the lack of income tax paid here. Wall Street has declined every year and Forbes listed the Brickell area as the new financial mecca.

    Chicago to Florida in 2011. Wife is a beach girl so I'm a Realtor on the gulf coast. Weather is awesome. Hot in the summer but you get used to it. Winter is wonderful. Ride a motorcycle or drive a sports car most of the year. No state income tax. Property taxes are low. State's budget is balanced. Compare that to Illinois or NJ. LOL Great channel!

    Nice. As a real estate agent in Orlando, I will say traffic is a little crazy at times but in the end, people move here for a reason and it hasn't changed. Most end up here.

      daredevil7442 Floriduh sucks with its low wages and shitty weather. Most of Jersey is in the NYC metro, one of the most important areas in the world with endless things to do. Just accept that Floriduh is garbage and that the people that move there have a low GAF score.

      Robert Fernadez: you can keep the cespool of that area. All you hear is noise. I prefer relaxation & quite. Yes weather is hot & humid in the summer but when you get older the cold hurts because of athritis. I live in southeastern Michigan & wish I could live in Florida during the winters. I prefer the gulf coast. South of Tampa.

    Hey Tavarish,
    I’m fairly new to your channel. I jumped on around the time you bought the Lambo. I gotta tell you what you’ve done on that car, your creativity, resourcefulness, and problem solving is amazing. It really encourages those of us out here that maybe have doubts that we could properly get our respective projects done the way we’ve envisioned. So a big thanks and RESPECT goes out to you for tacking every single issue that comes up and sharing it with us. Your content is very valuable. I wish all the very best to you and your family and look forward to all your content. Even as you say”junk”. It all had value. Thank you!!

Publix Food Stores.... and zero crime.... Good choice, Sir!... Scott in Cleburne, Tx

    Every state has its pluses and minuses. I'm in Dallas and, for the most part, I love it here ... despite the summer heat!
    Compared to the rest of Texas, our big cities are quite liberal and Democrat.
    Unfortunately, a lot of people are moving here (especially from CA), so houses are skyrocketing in value, along with property taxes.

    Nice house and neighborhood. Get citronella plants around your house for the mosquitoes and other bugs. You can get the back of your house screened in for a patio possibly a pool if your neighborhood will allow it. Drawback is possibly high paying jobs. You can those plants from Homedepot or other plant nursey
