Stop coming here, the mass immigration of wealthy northerners is driving up the housing market preventing natives AND migratories from being able to find good and affordable housing, many business have had to close due to rising rent. All yall do is bring violence, terrible attitudes, and poverty and then complain about hoe florida isnt like your home states, then leave, please go literally anywhere else.

I wouldn't move here again, because i like to experience change and different environments. It is a great area for a new family to start their lives. One thing is the woods behind our home brings little fury animals and critters, thats not always a good thing.
