Florida residents, are any 1 who been to florida

Me and my wife are coming into a " lot " of money and looking to settle down in Florida we have been looking at Miami,Panama City and Orlando. We like big tall skyscrapers, beaches( we never have seen clear beach water in person before ) nice malls and sunset strips and not a ghetto since we live in the ghetto now.

Im 23 and she is 19 and we are African American and hopefully not to many communitys are racist( we are looking for houses in the 300,000 range) with also a 4 year old and another baby due in September.

I think you forgot to ask us a question or tell us what we're discussing...

Orlando doesn't have tall buildings, and almost everyone is increasingly Hispanic. The big problem is crime. Miami is near the coast, and it does have tall buildings along the beach; but it's even more Hispanic than Orlando, and the heat can seriously break people. It's a very diverse place, but there is bound to be racism everywhere you go to, not just Florida. Schools are having trouble as budgets are small and places are overcrowded, meaning more teachers being laid off while there being more students in class. Willy105

[QUOTE="Storm_Marine"]

[QUOTE="Pirate700"]In his OP. He said he was African American.

an African American is an american citizen who has African ancestry

Surely you've heard it used as a more PC way of saying "black guy" ?

[QUOTE="Joshywaa"]

[QUOTE="Pirate700"]Yes since if he's not from Africa, there isn't anything African about him...If he was born in the US, he's American.

[QUOTE="Pirate700"]No, it's a term that's poorly used by ignorant people. If you are not from Africa, you are not African American. You're American.

I've got some advice and I'm a bit older then most of the people here. I've been to Florida and know a few things about life. Florida is not a cheap state to live in. Taxes on a $300k house won't be cheap your talking between $10,000 and $15,000 a year especially near Miami. You can get a nice house for around $100,000 give or take in other areas of Florida. You also have hurricains to worry about. Insurance won't be cheap.

My sugestion is go there and check it out. Rent a car and spend a few weeks looking around. Personally I like the gulf coast better either Fort Myers or Tampa.

as someone who has lived in florida for 23 years my advice would be not to live in orlando or miami. jacksonville is good, pensacola is nice, so is some parts of tampa.
