For real?

It's also the first time I've heard anyone say FL is 'ritzy', lol. Parts of S FL are the most poverty stricken areas in the US (Belle Glade comes to mind). The median income in FL is also on par with any of the other states in the south.

Well if you want to feel like you're still in America then Omaha easily. FL sucks.

From someone that's lived in the midwest and Florida, I think my opinion is an informed one. I also stated "what I consider the real world." So no matter how much someone tries to make a point, it's their opinion against mine. Unless you have spent time in Neb, you really don't have an basis to compare the two.
