Blizzards are very rare and a blizzard really is not that bad either, 2 feet of snow is nothing, just up to your knees, it is not like we have 10 foot piles of snow blocking off roads. I have a contract with the landscaper, who plows in the winter, and he comes and plows my driveway if we get 3+ inches of snow. He is done in a few minutes, pull the car out of the garage, and I am off.
I love the tropical paradise of Florida, but snow can be very nice at the right time.

Exactly.....We're prepared for it and take care of it in a timely manner.
Also, it helps in terms of water sources, as they accumulate due to the snowfall. It isn't an accident that Upstate NY has a lot of fresh water.
FLORIDA of course we have everything in Florida we have malls like New York if anybody didn't noticed we have everything in Florida Beaches, Theme parks, The keys, resorts, and malls and stores Florida is Just wayyyyyyyyyyy better than New York in my opinion why y'all get blizzards we barely get hurricanes and everytime it's hurricane season in Florida nothing happens so yea Florida is Better
It's important to separate NYC from the rest of NY when comparing, IMO. For me, I could never live in NYC. Too overly populated, expensive, rude people, etc. The Upstate is really beautiful, affordable, and the people are genuinely nice.
Having said that, I would still choose FL. My family and I have spent a lot of time there over the years and just love it.
Born and raised in Brooklyn east flatbush area. Moved to florida at the age of 26. I went back for a visit at 34 years old and just couldn't believe how dirty and how small its was so compact. I actually felt confined claustrophobic at times. Yeah I went in on some pizza went a got some real NY bagels coldcuts from a real deli and that was great. But telling the truth I couldn't wait to get the hell out of their my beloved Brooklyn the place I fought for my respect in where I bragged about for years was a big let down. I guess I got use to the pressure washed sidewalks the no debri beaches or the turdes floating by. I guess I got use to the flat roads where my vehicles have a greater life expectancy not like potholes everywhere destroying them. Yeah born and raised but I could never go back but it's in my heart and that's good enough for me !
