Hello I watch every video of your youtube I like it very much, analyzed your TH-cam channel and found some problems, you Want to talk about it for a while?
Hi Juan, can you share the link for that 'Texas A&M Violent Crime Per Capita' report for each city, I don't see that in the description nor from a quick Google search?
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 see a lot of people move from Chicago to Tampa. Im in Chicago, visiting my relatives and I want to move asap. Im originally from hot weather back in Mexico and maybe Tampa would be a good option.
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.
Besides traffic all of those cons seem more like pros to me. I live in Pennsylvania and inflation was at 8.2%. Pa weather is terrible and talk about things being spread lol. Where I live in pa. You are not going anywhere without a vehicle to get you there.
Wanting to move from San Diego….. I’m struggling with leaving the beauty here….and the costs are so hard….but I keep seeing how expensive it has become there so I’m doing so much research to see if it’ll be worth it
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 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.
Great video and info on the Tampa area, Also you look like Jimmy what ever way you pronounce his last name on the tonight’s show.. lol 😆 Kemble i think is his last name.. Again great video.. Tony J. from Indiana…🙌🏼👍👏🏼😃
We live in a Dallas suburb, so summer heat and traffic do not scare us. We’ve decided we need the beach lifestyle though, and zero probability the temp will go below 20 in February. 😁
I'm planning on coming from Anaheim CA and picking up my family from Syracuse NY on the way...my destination and overall goal to go to is Tampa..it's just going to be such an uphill battle because I have no family there and would need a place to live right away...please, if anyone can help with advice?? Thanks!
Hey I’ll be moving from Detroit too..I’m still looking for a nice home in the Tampa area. I’m a retired Detroit police detective and I’m not trying to move somewhere bad.
Feel free to reach out when you're ready. I’ll walk you through Tampa Bay using Google Maps and show you the best communities and neighborhoods that match your ideal lifestyle. 📧 info@trulivingroup.com 📅 calendly.com/juan-alcala/45 📲 (813) 261-3540
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 TH-cam but not enough channels for Miami.
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.
I’m a single senior adult wanting to move to Florida not too far from beach. Middle north of Florida not south. I’m active love night life too . Not too expensive areas and no HOA if possible. I would like to know your suggestions.
Oof... Good luck with that. Not too many places like that in FL unless if you're looking to move to the West Coast like Daytona Beach. Or maybe Northern FL near the panhandle like Panama City Beach.
Don’t be so nice! Drivers here are the worst! Especially st. Pete 😅 I will correct you in the crime part though. Unfortunately Tampa Bay especially Pinellas county has more crimes per capita than NYC 😢

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. 😂
Palmetto bugs / roaches are almost inevitable here in FL as a whole. German roaches are the ones that will infest dirty homes, but regular roaches will just pop in and out every once in a while. It's just because it's a swamp outside and the roaches are looking for somewhere to hide. Keeping your home clean, sealed off from the outside, have a good bug guy, and live in a suburb. Those are the best pieces of advice I can give! 😂
Generally speaking, I think people underestimate the amount of crime there is here. We're not as bad as some places, but we're not this beacon of hope that people are comparing us too. If you keep your car unlocked someone's gonna steal your stuff.
Only one good thing and that's the weather,, in between huge monstrous hurricanes and floods and crazy high rent and housing, incredible high insurance rates, unheard of traffic, horrible crime, anti women rights, anti immigrant, book banning, anti LGBT, anti black, high food prices, huge divide between rich and poor, etc, etc. come on down. Lol
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.
This video is triggering.... you speak about investors and people moving here casually. Ignoring the ramifications to the locals who were already here. Jobs don't pay well here. People with remote jobs are moving in and pricing locals out. Stop saying "our" and "we". You're not one of us.
You’re entitled to your opinion, and I can appreciate your perspective. However, I assure you, my family and are locals, too. Just because we weren’t born here doesn’t mean we don’t care. We live, work, and contribute to “our” local economy and pay our taxes just like you.

Want to talk about it for a while?
Hi Juan, can you share the link for that 'Texas A&M Violent Crime Per Capita' report for each city, I don't see that in the description nor from a quick Google search?
I grew up in South St Pete, maybe 15 minutes from St Pete Beach. We've had that house since 1993 and I will never let my mother sell our house.
Smart move.
I will always take the heat over the cold. When it is hot I am uncomfortable and I am sweating, but I am not in pain. The cold is very painful.
So true

I agree. It is for who it’s for. 😎

I am middle income and tightening my belt! Reckon I'll stay here though.😮
I see a lot of people move from Chicago to Tampa. Im in Chicago, visiting my relatives and I want to move asap. Im originally from hot weather back in Mexico and maybe Tampa would be a good option.
I'm with you. I don't like cold weather. And sure don't like dreary days. I'm a summer baby and love summer weather

And people like you are ruining it for people who grew up here.
Wanting to move from San Diego….. I’m struggling with leaving the beauty here….and the costs are so hard….but I keep seeing how expensive it has become there so I’m doing so much research to see if it’ll be worth it
San Diego is literally one of the most beautiful places in the world! But it's crazy expensive.
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.
do not leave!! SD is Heaven....you get what you pay for and it's worth it!!!

Wow! Been in Chicago for 30 years. Visited my buddy a few ago! Tampa is my next destination!!
How’s the ybor area? Flooding issues? Safe?

My people!
Great info! Looking forward to move to Tampa/Sarasota closer to spring 2024.
Thank you. Feel free to reach out, we’re here to help.
I definitely recommend Sarasota! You get the accessibility without being overcrowded and awesome people! I miss living there.
Very good thorough and frank analysis. . Thank you
You’re welcome!
Good video and you give alot of interesting information. Thanks for posting.
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
I live 40 minutes away in Land O Lakes so I don’t have to deal with the city but can still work in the city for a higher salary lol.

@@picklechips1483 i hate cockroaches, man. They are filthy af. What about nice apartments? They get in there as well?
30 minute drive…. Plan for an hour
Tampa is a dangerous city. Glad i left florida years ago.
Compared to St. Louis. It’s heaven sent
