Where are you coming and going?
I was looking at Miami for potential relocation, my parents live near Vero beach. What do you dislike about Florida? Too many rednecks? Just go to the Miami
Too many to list. Drink that Florida water and for some reason your IQ just drops or two steps away from a mental institution.
Miami is cool but every where else... it's next level crazy
Even where there are pockets of enlightenment in Florida, it will always be rubbing up against extreme ignorance right next door.
The drug use among the white rednecks here is off the charts with multiple generations of tatted up criminals driving around blasting their sub-woofers who will cap you if you're in the wrong place at the wrong time and they don't like the way you look at them. You see people tweaking all the time and there's plenty of street hookers.
That exists in other places too, don't get me wrong, but there's a high density of these aholes here. In the most upscale neighborhoods you'll miss all of this if you're sheltered, but in Florida the glory of derangement is visible by driving 10 minutes in any direction from my experience.
On top of that, this is one of the most corrupt states run by electoral thieves.
And Miami is no picnic. I'm on the Gulf side which is much better than the Eastern seaboard which is even more violent and dangerous. Miami as a vacation destination might seem like a nice place to go if you're heading to South Beach, but be careful where you wander late at night. The drivers in Miami are literally insane. It is often the worst and most reckless place of all. Don't know what's so cool about Miami TBH
And the last thing is Florida is a super transient place. Lots of the redneck stuff is locals, but it is also a place where people go to park their money and live where it is warm. But that also means you attract lots of know nothing, self-interested people who think they are hot stuff because they can afford to buy a house or a second home here. People with money in Florida generally tend to be among the most boring people I've met my whole life. They contribute nothing to the culture the majority of the time and do their best to separate themselves from people without money. Florida is the ultimate land of the haves and the have nots and neither are the basis for much culturally
There are good people and artists in Florida like anywhere, but they are overwhelmed by the sheer mediocrity of the rest of this state. It's a cultural wasteland for the most part
