Living anywhere in Florida outside of Miami is the equivalent of living in a Golden Girls episode.

And to add, it's not like young people are FLOCKING to Western Pennsylvania, or Upstate New York. Living in NY state or Pennsylvania OUTSIDE of Philly and NYC is like the equivalent of living in an episode of uhm, hmm, what shows take place in Western PA and Upstate NY?

Florida has the highest average age of all 50 states and it's a fact.

Miami Beach is the only exception, which is the ONLY part of Florida that I enjoy. The rest of the state is cultureless and filled with snowbirds.

No, young people do not flock to PA outside of Philly. However, old people don't either.

You are arguing facts, which makes you look completely oblivious to both states. Florida has the highest average age of all 50 states, ACCEPT THE FACTS!

FYI, I can SHOUT too. No need to use capitals.

And all of those states are extremely dense. Density and true urbanity is something that southerners don't understand outside of Miami.

But, then again it's probably because Miami is not southern in culture.

What YOUTH are flocking to PA outside of Philly? Like I said Florida outside of Miami may not have that much youth flocking to it, but Northeastern states are the PRIME example of this phenomenon. Who goes to MASS outside of Boston? Who goes to Penn outside of Philly? Who goes to NY outside of NYC metro?

My point is the same point that I have been trying to make in this whole thread. Let me repeat myself for about the 10th time.

EVERYTHING in florida is filled with snowbirds outside of Miami.
