Mr. Smith said:I would say that Florida overall offers much more than Georgia, having lived in both. In general Florida is a much better run state and Florida has no state income tax, while Georgia does.
If you want a diverse community, Miami is very nice. Has a bad rep from Miami Vice show days as if drug dealers with uzis roamed the streets, but I have never felt uncomfortable in Miami. Its a very nice city.
Tampa is very nice. Palm Beach-Ft. Lauderdale area very nice. Many nice small towns in North Florida on the east coast for a family to live in.
My friend wants me to move to Orlando but everytime I visit I think, "nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to stay here."
