I've been there only once or twice. It was really nice from what I remember, But I was only near the water, and that seems to be the case in a lot of Florida cities, esp Miami. I missed the bad parts.
You're lucky..I live near the Bayfront(one block) and one block from Selby Gardens....Great neighborhood...just many of the people leave much to be desired, in Sarasota. Like the lady who said my smoking on the beach...outside....a football field away from her stinks up her hair....get my drift...she could teach a course on the meaning of the word PRIMADONNA...LOL.....
True......and Tampa seems better than Sarasota...it is full of rich, uneducated snobs...and everyone else plays second fiddle...also a very racially segregated city. It is like one huge gated community and no regular people are allowed or welcomed. Remember Sarasota has won MEANEST CITY in the country for a few years now...LOL... Take care... DO NOT misunderstand...I just reread my post....I am talking about Sarasota being snobish...etc. NOT Tampa...you seem nice.
Just to clarify.
By meanest city are you refering to the ranking as meanest city to the homeless? That was the only ranking I could find for it.
But you have to remember that Realtors on here like to keep things like that a secret. Florida Realtors are starving right now, why do you think they are on city data instead of out there showing properties. The gig is up for Florida and they cant accept it. All I can say to them is that they better get used to it and their empty condo towers.
Just a quick question. You always go on and on about how much more there is to do up north yet you seem to be on here an awful lot. Why is that?

Yes; but I use that quote loosely...LOL... I walk or bicycle or bus or cab around town...I always carry a backpack because of this. Some police and residents assume since you are walking...have backpack...etc....that you are homeless or a bum...so I understand exactly what those "polls" mean...LOL... Plus I have been severly harassed at certain beaches because some police here are very prejudiced. PS and some Policemen I have met here were nice. I also have had bottles thrown at me on numerous occassions , from cars, while walking and bicycling....That is part of why I get a bit defensive, paranoid, and negative...LOL...
Florida must be on his mind some much, he can't help but come on here and talk negatives about it to make him feel better because he is not here.
If you would read, the thread is PA vs FL. So why would FL be on his mind? He is just stating his arguments on this thread. I would never want to live in FL... It is so boring.... and the heat ugh... can't do it.
