OP, you can't go anywhere!
Remember what mommy said the last time the Principal called her when you skipped school?

I'm thinking about moving there this summer. Can't be all that bad right?
Old people - what's wrong with them?
Latin people - I'm from Texas, it'll feel like home
Rednecks in the north - again, ditto
Job - got one lined up
Hot weather - again, I'm from Texas and I hate snow/cold weather
...and there's the beach, and c'mon...Disney? It's the happiest place on earth. What's the problem.

Yea, the stuff I listed didn't really bother me (well the rundown/redneck areas of the north would, but I lived in central). It's not a place I'd purposely move to (my parents moved there when I was 10), but I don't think it's really horrendous. I was just trying to state why some people might not like it.

It sux because it's boring as hell down there. You can go to the beach, or you can go to the beach. If you lived there, you would not be going to the parks at all. That like saying you would move to Springfield, Ma just to go to Six Flags.

How is it boring? I'm not 18-21. I don't need bars, clubs, or nightlife. I just need my family and quiet beachfront house/cottage/condo. Fishing is never boring.

Florida sounds like a great place to visit to get a break from Winter, but I can't imagine living there.

Maybe come to Canada to take a break from the heat. lol
