I grew up in FL, and honestly, cant fathom why people want to live there:P.

Its completely flat, boring, and ridiculously humid and hot, you cant walk outside just about any time of the year with out breaking a sweat. And I lived in the north, on the beach. Its can be nice in the summertime when girls are just walking around town in bikinis (if you are near the beach), but if youre away from the coast, its all swamp rednecks and old people. They dont call it "Gods waiting room" for nothing..

Jacksonville Beach, and the surrounding beaches are nice enough. You're also in a little inward dip where the hurricanes have a hard time hitting. They either swing up north or just go straight across southern florida, missing jacksonville every time. Lived there for 22 years, and had to evacuate for a hurricane once, and it still didnt hit us.
