Sure seems that way....

Otherwise.....what's the point of the poll?

What is the point of any poll then?

I want to see what town people would NOT want to live in.

If i returned to Fla. i'd avoid those towns/cities that are not directly on the gulf or Atlantic as i'd want my location to remind me i'm in Florida not just a hot and humid nondescript town/city in anyplace USA.
St Pete works for me, Tampa doesnt.

Right on as far as Miami having most votes. Like I thought.

Pensacola leaves much to be desired, and other cities in the northern part of the state such as Tallahassee and Gainesville--although not listed--are only marginally better, mostly due to the presence of state government and/or major universities. Jacksonville is definitely the least desirable major city in Florida. I haven't really spent much time in either Titusville or Melbourne, but at least those places are warmer in the winter than Jacksonville.

Predictable that Miami would have the most votes. Certainly not a city for everyone. Most people can't handle it. People either love it or hate it. And in Florida if you don't live there you usually hate it for no real reason. It's one of the more hated cities on city-data.

As for me I voted for Pensacola. I wouldn't want to live in any of them but Miami, Orlando or Tampa. And even the last two are a stretch, especially Tampa.

Surprising about Tampa, at least it's near beaches like Miami. Orlando does have the better airport and shopping though

Why do so many people dislike Orlando? It isn't really that different from Tampa, which only got one vote.

Yea. I just think I would enjoy Orlando more. But I've also been to Orlando more times. Going to Tampa later this year. Maybe it will get higher up. The coast is a big plus for Tampa over Otown. But those are defiently the three I could live in. And maybe just maybe Key West or Ft. Myers if I could have a nice home.
