Very comprehensive list. Bugs, daily rain, and the bad drivers definitely top my list! There are so many positives that definitely outweigh the negatives though 👍

Moved here from Chicago two years ago, thanks to Adam and this awesome city! We absolutely love it here. We’ve embraced the heat. (You don’t have to shovel sunshine). I guarantee you’ll love it here. Traffic is still better than Chicago. Bugs are no issue in our area. They spray. Gators leave you alone, if you leave them alone. LOVE IT HERE!

We're always busy salting our margaritas, not our roads! 🤪

We live in a Dallas suburb and have all of this (and it’s worse in a lot of ways), but we aren’t near water so this sounds pretty great 😁

I used to love Tampa. I was raised there my whole life. Now I'm saving to leave, which is hard to do in Florida. I'm just tired of the politics, expensive economy, and crime. It's "booming" for money makers. And there is very little activities for children that I've found. Florida schools are beyond bad, and city traffic is a joke. I can deal with the storms. Heavy rain is actually welcomed so I can stay in the house and not deal with the madness outside of my door anymore.

I love Tampa, that was my first Trip in Florida ❤

Tampa, including most of the places you will go do not have an issue with bugs. Personally i am one that mosquitos love, but having liver in fl for years i can honestly say mosquitos was never a problem at all. And drive a convertible. Some times i would find mosquitos attempting to attack my legs in the car footwell. But simply turning on the ac would blow them out, and again that situation was very rare. But their is one thing you need not do, and thats wearing strong perfume or cologne. Those scents do attract mosquitoes. Wasps are a pain but easily solved when you destroy their nest. No nest no wasps. Their is a bug called no-see'em, and they will go after you at twilight and sundown. These bugs are not mosquitoes but they bite all the same. Noseem because you no see them . Basically they are biting gnats but much much smaller. And again most of the time not a problem.

Hi Adam. Love your videos as they are so informative. I live in Az now and am thinking of moving back to Florida, probably Sarasota over Tampa. Could you and your company help me in Sarasota too or are you just Tampa based ?

[CGDavis]

I'm from Georgia and the majority of this sounds just like where I live. Minus the large bodies of water. Pleasantly suprised.

As someone who lives in Mass, Im dying to get to Tampa in the next couple years. I hate the cold and am sick of it up here, how are apartments looking for rent and job opportunities? I work for the post office so by the time I get out there, should be good.

Tampa st.pete Clearwater is a wonderful place to live. One of the best places in all if Florida. The problem is whats made it great is being ruined by people moving in. People move in and make what was originally lite and peaceful into noisy crowded and kaotic. All the reasons why they left other places become their blind mission to create in the very place theyve come to settle. Ruining what was good about the place. Some growth is ok. Too much growth attracts all the bad elements that made the previous location non sustainable. Florida has gone from being affordable. To focused on greed..

I went to school there. couldn’t stand the weather after the third year my last year at university I was so glad to leave. Lived in Westchase, Hillsboro Highway by Ozmar, Solano Bay Loop.

Tampa is probably the best place in the sunshine state to live (Bay Area st pete too) it’s everything you want without too much traffic/crime. But if you really want to stay away from any city vibes or attitudes then just choose the outskirts.

[nola-baissa]

These bugs on the screen freaked me out and I had to throw my phone away. Why!!! Now I’m freaked out of Tampa.

Do most HOA's handle cutting the lawn and maintaining the landscape?

[gsand]

I have lived here since 1973. It USED to be lovely. Now, it's horrible in most every way. So much crime, too expensive now, and litter! Of course there are "nice" spots and things to do but I prefer the alligators to all these people. Sorry. I would rather live in the country away from it all---LOL.❤

Didn't he forget to mention the bitesaur? 😅

If you miss the mountains buy a second or third home in Cashiers, NC. That's where all the Tampons have second homes.

I have a Florida story that involves my mother and her phobia of snakes. She was living in daytona Beach at the time, and i went to visit her for a week. One day, she takes me to the pet store so she can get dog food and show me the cool animals they had (they had a capuchin monkey that wasn't for sale as well as a few snakes and monitor lizards). We get to the checkout counter, and the cashier is holding two baby snakes (one in each hand). I don't remember what kind of snakes other than one of them was white with red eyes. At this point, i wasn't aware of how much my mother fears snakes, and it wasn't immediately obvious to me as my mom didn't show any signs of fear. Then, out of nowhere, my mom lets out a blood curdling scream that I've never heard her make before or since. Turns out, she didn't realize the snakes the guy was holding were real until the white one moved its head. I about died laughing. This was eight years ago and i still chuckle a little whenever i think about it.
