11 Boca, 9 Hialeah. I would personally love to subtract North Miami (just not nice) and Pompano Beach as well (high crime, run down beach area, poor leadership ran it to the ground), and add one to Sarasota (interesting downtown, proximity to AMI and good places), add one to Coral Springs (one of the safest cities in the U.S, restaurant row, well rounded). Most of the better cites in FL aren't in that list thogh.

To keep track, it is carried on in every post, i forget to make that clear! Sorry!

Don't forget, once a town has a point you keep it like that, here is the current results, just copy this and post, then copy and paste the person above yours.

Boca Raton - 11 (safer than average, nice restaurants, clean, beach)
Boynton Beach - 10
Bradenton - 10
Brandon - 10
Cape Coral - 10
Carol City - 10
Clearwater - 10
Coral Springs - 12 (safe, restaurants, well rounded)
Davie - 10
Daytona Beach - 10
Deerfield Beach - 10
Delray Beach - 10
Deltona - 10
Destin - 11 (shopping, fishing, beach)
Fort Lauderdale - 10
Fountainbleu - 10
Gainesville - 10
Hialeah - 09 (Hideous, gridlocked, unsafe feeling)
Hollywood - 10
Jacksonville - 10
Kendale - 10
Kendall - 10
Lakeland - 10
Largo - 10
Lauderhill - 10
Margate - 10
Melbourne - 10
Miami - 08 (unsafe)
Miramar - 10
North Miami - 09 (just not nice)
Orlando - 09 (traffic, watch your back)
Palm Bay - 10
Palm Harbor - 10
Panama City - 10
Pembroke Pines - 10
Pensacola - 10
Plantation - 10
Pompano Beach - 09 (high crime, run down, poor leadership)
Port St. Lucie - 11 (beautiful)
Sarasota - 11 (interesting, close to AMI)
Spring Hill - 10
St. Petersburg - 10
Tallahassee - 11
Tamarac - 10
Tampa - 10
West Palm Beach - 10


Here is the current results, Miami is in last place with 8 points so far and in 1st Place, Coral Springs with 12 points, when we start, if a city gets to 5, remove it until there are only 20 cities left, then we will go to zero! If Miami gets deducted 3 more times its out!

Here's my minus for Miami; lived there for 40+ years and saw it go from Paradise to Third World Country (sorry, couldn't resist saying that). I'm looking into Lakeland for my next relocation.

Wow, Hialeah is much more "third worldlike" than Miami, I'm surprised at the lack of votes for Hialeah. Miami is corrupt as all hell but it's still a major world financial center and has alright places like Coconut Grove.
