Default Central Florida, South Florida or Tampa Bay?

Dear All,

I am thinking about moving FL next year and now, with your help, I am trying to figure out where is the best place to live and work there. Here are some infos regarding my profile: Man (caucasian), single, 30 years old, speak fluently 3 languages (english, spanish, portuguese), graduated Business, MBA Finance with large work experience.

In my research I am considering the follows:

- Job Market for Finance´s positions
- House in the middles 200K
- Hurricane and Tornadoes low risk areas
- Nightlife and Restaurants
- Traffic

Can you please provide me some cities where I can fit myself?

Tks in advance,

Default Hurricanes, Nightlife, Traffic, oh my.

Let's see...

Heavy Nightlife -- S. Florida, Tampa.
Heavy Traffic -- S. Florida, Tampa.
Heavy hurricane activity -- S. Florida, Tampa. Minimal-- Central Florida. I've been through all so I speak from experiece.
White Folk -- Central Florida.
Houses less than 200K and up - Central Florida bedroom communities.
Jobs - S. Florida and Tampa. You will make use of your other languages in these two areas.


The others will weigh in and correct or add to my offerings.

Tks in advance,


Job Market - Orlando or Miami
Housing - Central Flordida has one of the fastest growing population rates there are great houses here.
Hurricanes - Orlando. I have lived in Orlando 18 years and I have only seen one year, 2004, where hurricanes had a major impact on us. It destroyed a lot of things including the city.
Nightlife and Restaurants -- Tampa or Miami
Traffic - Not Orlando or Miami, traffic is horrible in both.

I think the hurricane issue was covered, so I'll just add that low-risk areas for tornados probably don't exist in FL, or the S/E US. But I'm thinking Central FL has more tornadic activity than the coasts. Tornados near the coasts tend to be more of the waterspout variety. Usually.
