I'm 61 years old and I grow up in Florida. It's just a horrible place to live anymore, it used to be wonderful here. So much traffic, people are mean from other places, our environment is suffering. I'd like to move away from here to😢
The scam of making people replace roofs that have another 10 year life left in them is borderline criminal. What a racket they have going on here. Then you barely still get a reasonable insurance rate but then some still tell you, oh we aren't insuring homes built before 2000. It's a huge headache and maybe not worth it anymore.
Florida is unjust irregular incompetence in business and for those who don't know better it's acceptable; reasons everyone else that comes that is accustomed to regulations competent business practices and safety, opportunity to breathe leaves,I'm working my way out and away from Florida to never look back.
Florida politicians don’t want to talk about the insurance crisis. When a state has to get into the insurance business (Citizens Insurance) because so many private insurance companies are fleeing the state, that’s an insurance crisis.
Moved to Florida when I was 2. 35 now. Thinking about heading out finally. I love Florida. Great weather. Lots to do. Beautiful nature. But, way too expensive. I don’t want to have a mortgage and have to pay $500-800 a month just to insure the place. Ridiculous.
just move to another part of FLORIDA. You dont need to move to a massive metro area. Strip malls are a Florida thing. You will see TJMAXX , Ross, Publix , Pet store, Starbucks, and Urgent Care every 2 miles. If you move to a "Great Value" state you will get that. They have no clue what is a concrete block, or a building code. its just 🏠paper + glue (siding + some faux bricks) POPULAR states are popular for a reason. and "Great value states = you get what you pay for.
Insurance and tax on a home are both high all admit but moving here from Arkansas that was covered simply by not having state tax. I will note I purchased before the increase of housing cost so I did get in a bit cheaper than today's prices but I am and I higher property tax area too so that it is a bit of a negative... But Arkansas compared to Florida absolutely nothing in Arkansas would take me back there! South Carolina is a bit better but no.
@@HalfRight my best friend and mom live in South Carolina. Thought about there. My brother lives in Huntsville AL and it’s rated top ten best cities for income/cost ratio.
@@cinnamonstar808 I like living places where there are amenities. Some people like rural living, which I don’t mind and would consider. But I like having shops, gas stations, schools and hospitals all near me. I don’t wanna have to drive 30 min to get everywhere or have an hour plus commute to work. It’s all a trade off ultimately.
It is WAY easier to live in Ohio compared to Florida and California which I lived in both. Florida and California are beautiful and fun, but if you aren’t a millionaire, you can’t really enjoy it anyways. Going to South Beach to enjoy: cheap $300 for lunch. I don’t like to go out if I’ve look at prices all the time. I want to relax.
Hard pass on florida.. Too much hate there. They can have it. I grew up in Tennessee. Everyone always ran to florida for vacation. I went a couple of times but found it boring.. What is their perfect patriot dictator.. Oops, gov doing to help people there? Oh yeah, sueing the states biggest employer for disagreeing with him...🤣🤣🤣
I can't stand living in Florida. I stay because of my kids. But they're adults and like it here. I'll be finding my way out soon. I miss the snow and the affordability of other places.
Its not fair that transplants from new york and California get to move in and raise the real estate prices and then us Florida natives get pushed out because we cant afford it anymore. Florida needs rent control!! Its about time. We've had enough already.
Never gonna have rent control in Florida with the GOP in majority control. People in NYC (area) & California kept their homes for decades & sold them for huge profits. That's the American way & in Florida about 2/3 of it is not very well off.
@@jasoncrandall73 I agree. Florida is under REPUBLICAN dictatorship and rule. It's all about them staying rich and keeping the poor down forever. Kind of like communism.

Did yall governor actually sign a bill to let landlords raise rent to anything they want? "Landlords are no longer required to give a 60-day notice for rent increases of 5% or more. Landlords are no longer explicitly prohibited from discriminating against tenants based on their source of income. Landlords are no longer required to disclose a list of legal rights to applicants before they sign the lease.Jul 11, 2023" This is Florida's CS/HB 1417 (2023) Bill.
Florida has the some of the worst healthcare and education systems in the United States compared to other states such as Massachusetts, Illinois and California.
I am LEAVING South Florida after 23 years. Thanks to Ron DeSantis who I used to like, this state is unaffordable for me. My rent went from $1400 to $2000 in six months. Moving to Wyoming. MAYBE Utah if I can find the right housing. Maybe just buy an RV.
Long term resident but cant afford insurance and energy bills anymore..plus red tide and hurricanes..and massive housing developments here in Sarasota county destroying the area..very sad
@WPTV News- FL Palm Beaches and Treasure Coast as a former resident of the washington dc area it was fairly cheap up north than florida. flying on the cheap side wasn't a big issue but it's more so the mortage is just insane. same with utilities.
I don't blame these families that are seeking elsewhere...Inflation has risen 360 degrees...Living on a retirement check & disabled at the same time with wife we live under the poverty level status so the best of luck to the fortunate families.
I’m forced to leave. I regret voting for DeSantis! He has made the state that I love, completely unaffordable. I’m so heartbroken. He told the people from California and New York to come and now we have to move out because we can’t afford to eat on $15 an hour jobs.
I’m so happy that I fled Florida after 27 years to return to Massachusetts! It’s become an absolutely horrible place to live. The cost of living has FAR outpaced the crappy Florida salaries. Category 4 & 5 hurricanes are now the norm. They were basically unheard of years ago. Ridiculous home insurance rates that can increase 100/200/300% upon renewal are common because of these monster hurricanes. Oh, and the politics has become regressive and toxic. A large swath of the population is simply ignorant and proud of it (even if they think they’re intelligent). Happy to be out and never going back again!
Definitely, working to leave for a better quality of life larger options for work Florida functions with a savage mentality fostered from political practices as well as dictatorship. Crazy is it's acceptable in Florida.
Why do they hate North Carolina so much now? I think this country is becoming very segmented. If you move to a rural cheap kind of place, there are people there who call the shots and don't like outsiders. Neo conservatism. If you don't share their exact outlook, they will shun you and harass you and try to make you leave. It is hard to move to any new place and fit in probably. Everyone is very competitive. If you are in one spot, moving is a huge expense just for a change of pace. She wishes she could have her old expensive house back.
It's upsetting to see Florida fall just like California, New York, and most of America. I always dreamed of escaping Washington state for somewhere warmer...
Living in florida is like California expenses but still florida earnings and ready for be a homeless or find a way move out to texas like houston san antonio dallas forth worth and just your one week hourly paycheck will be enough pay your rent cost but in florida only you can afford a room bye bye florida soon.
Got drug down to Florida when I was 12 and I'm in my late 50s now and have hated every minute of this wretched state. The climate is just nuts with the heat and humidity (I do love the rain though and I've lived through some direct hits from some major hurricanes and no, don't like the 'canes, but it's not my main reason for wanting to leave) sick of all the illegals and their crime, sick of the good ole boy corruption, sick of the cost of living that leaves the average person here a hairs width of groveling in the street at any given time. And now there's all those from New York and california flooding down here bringing their ignorant liberal politics with them. The area I've lived in is being destroyed by needless construction, the noobs running over the blue harens, and other native wildlife with no regard, the serious increase is wrecks ... No one in their right mind should want to live in this hell hole. Most of my life has been wasted here but I'm finally doing what I can to get out. I will make sure to grab the flag as I go ...oh and save the 'fine good riddance' or whatever, I don't give af what you think.
