I drive less then 50 miles a week normally and avoid the roads at rush hour. Pretty much everything that I could want is less then 10 miles from my house and most is less then a few miles. I live in a private home with a private yard but I'm also living in the heart of the city within walking distance of a beautiful beach.

There is a lot of older folks down here. Hopefully people will be as nice to me when I'm old as I am to them. Really I have no problem with retirees and often end up talking with them and learning from their life experiences.

There is a lot of Latins and there is also a lot of Asian, African, Italian, Brazilian, Jewish, Indian, Native Americans, Plain Old Vanilla White Folks, plus a bunch of other ethnic groups, and lots of mixed race people like myself. I like the diversified ethic and cultural mix here. It makes for an interesting place to live.

Great dinning, great shopping, great nightlife. I don't own any warm clothes and have no reason to. I can drive a nice car year round since it doesn't snow. I go to the beach all year.

The downside is it is hot and humid for a few months out of the year but I just wear very little clothing and mostly stay indoors during the afternoon hours. We may get some bad weather for a few days during the storm season but I will take that any day over snow and cold for months on end.

I really do love living here. If for some reason I had to leave I would probably move to the desert like out in Nevada or someplace like that but I would miss the ocean and convenience of south Florida.
