new york vs florida...?
Jake
i live in new york but my parents want to move to florida. i really dont want to move because im in high school and i dont want to leave my family, friends, and school. plus i love my house and i love new york. i've asked my friends for a second opinion and all of them have said that they would move to florida given the chance. i understand thier reasoning, i too like florida. but i really like ny and i was wondering if there was anyone who agrees and would choose ny over florida. if there is please tell me why u feel that way, because i really want another opinion. and if u prefer florida, then i respect ur opinion but theres no need for you to post that here because i've heard it all before. thanks... =)
Answer
I would choose New York!!! I live in Florida and I absolutely hate it!
sure Florida has all the theme parks, but going to the theme parks over and over again just gets old and you no longer appreciate them anymore.
Florida's "snow" consists of bubbles or foam. It rarely gets down to freezing temp. Average winter tempatures average around 50 degrees. Its warm all year long and the summers are horrible. hot and humid! it can get so bad that your drenched in sweat just from getting the mail in the mailbox. The leaves dont change, they just fall. There are no seasons. When the temp hits 65 degrees in FL everyone goes balistic! they either get soo excited that its finally "cold" in FL or they complain that they are "freezing" and it will be all over the news. 65 degrees in FL! OMGGG!!! Its pathetic.
besides, FL is pretty hard to get around. public transportation is limited, and depending on where you live, there may be no public transport whatsoever! There are no subways, and trains are mainly used for transporting goods, not people. There are few taxis and a good amount of busses, but thats it. your either stuck carpooling or walking. its not easy to walk around FL either. Its easier to get around NY.
There is more to do in NY. Most things in FL close around 10-11pm. If you want any late night entertainment, you go hang out in WalMart or go to a bar (which close at 1 btw). The streets are pretty much empty by 10pm. In NY, the streets are packed until 2-3 in the morning, and sometimes even later! theres so much more to do in NY. if you like entertainment and fun, stay in NY!
NY also is home to the Macy's thanksgiving day parade, new years eve ball drop, and the statue of Liberty. FL doesnt have anything that great. We have small town christmas parades that happen TWO weeks before thanksgiving, and we just sit around in our neighborhoods on new years eve drinking sprakling grape juice, wine, and shooting off fireworks... nothing very interesting! you hear of Orlando, Tampa, Miami, and Jacksonville. Our biggest cities... but downtown SUCKS! I dont even call it a downtown. The skyscrapers are like 25 floors high and theres not even big department stores. Downtown Tampa is actually more "rundown" than most other downtown areas.
FL is packed with lots of old people (its where they retire) they go slow on the roads and take forever getting through cash registers. I have nothing against old people, but its aggravating when your in a hurry and theres an old person going 20 miles UNDER the speed limit!
and speaking about driving, FL drivers are horrible! we are either speeding 100 in a 60 mph zone, 60 in a school zone (which is 25mph in FL) or were going 20 in a 45! People cut you off to no end and will blast their horn at you to run a red light! Many FL drivers dont pay attention, Ive seen people text, put makeup on, and even read a book WHILE driving down the road. Its crazy! and every other car you see there will be a person talking on their phone. No one cares and no one is aware. That results in a lot of accidents. And even if there ISNT an accident, some people would follow you just to give you the bird and swear at you. I know i know, that happens everywhere, including NY. but its really bad in FL.
I do love FL and it has its perks, its actually a really great place to live if you plan on retiring or if you like warm weather, theme parks, and beaches. but I do prefer NY over FL... and Ive only been to NY twice.
