Maybe Bronze Age Pervert was right with all that "Tropical Aryan Urheimat" stuff. Sounds very promising. I still like your idea as a long-term possibility even though I can't do it in the short-term.

And that's taking into account that I think Florida has many and considerable downsides. The benefits might be enough to overcome that.

Florida is not one place just like how NorthEast is not one place.

Cambridge, MA:

is very different from Kensington, PA:

no i haven't been to Kensington, but i have been to Cambridge. it was paradise but also it was August and it will be different picture in January and i can't afford anything there anyway.

ideally you would have one home in Miami and one in Cambridge and spend half a year in each ... as soon as i win the lottery.

actually i haven't been to Miami but i do know the winters there are significantly milder than even in Orlando.

it was cool before and after i was in Orlando - it just happened to be summer weather while i was there.

Miami would be a great place ( climate wise ) to live during winter and Boston during summer. but this would cost about 4X as much as having one home in Orlando.

again, i haven't been to Miami - it would have been a fairly long drive from Orlando.

on other hand hand i did drop by Tampa to check out the goth night scene there as it was just 1 hour drive from Orlando ! i managed to checkout the night scene in both Orlando and Tampa in the same night. as advertised Tampa has goths while Orlando and Jacksonville do not.

as goth-adjacent myself i like having the option to hit up Tampa like that ... but i wouldn't want to live in Tampa myself ... it's a bit more run down than Orlando and so is JAX.

Orlando is a step up from both JAX and Tampa.

Miami is PROBABLY a step up from Orlando, but not sure.

Ponte Vedra ( and to lesser extent Nocatee ) in St. John's county is VERY nice but those aren't cities. they are JAX suburbs and JAX is a dump.

anyway there are a lot of great places in Florida.

a lot of shitholes as well.

but with a car the shitholes can be avoided.

the problem with places like NYC is that you're not in a car - you're on the subway - and it always goes through some ghetto.

in Florida you can just take a freeway straight to the beach or to the club without stopping in the ghettos.

NYC is great for people who can afford to live in Down Town or Mid Town Manhattan and use Taxi as their primary mode of transportation. Keep in mind as well that everything like Gyms costs more in Manhattan. You can expect to pay over $200 a month for gym there for example.

it's also great for homeless and prostitutes and drug dealers.

not really an option for anybody trying to raise a family. people with kids all live in outside of NYC and commute.

the objective when commuting is to take some Nigger Free ( read expensive ) transport such as Coach Bus that bypasses all the ghettos and goes from Suburbs straight to Financial District or Mid-Town. the ones that go to Financial District make a few stops there so you can walk from the bus stop. The ones that go to bus terminal in Mid-Town will require you to take a subway for the last leg of your trip =/
