Since FL has for most the part, depended on sprawl and new development for more population growth to keep the economy running, what will happen when there is no more land for counties to build on or expand? Will these counties experience stagnation or will they continue to grow? Pinellas and Monroe are mostly built out, Broward county looks like it will be next.

All of the Miami metro counties are basically filled out hence all of the highrises and skyscrapers going up.

Yup, knock down an old building and build a 50 story tower. Look at Google maps. There's tons of old short buildings on prime land for redevelopment.

Good lord, YES. PLENTY of that in Miami. Old neighborhoods that have been deserted, the population moved on. Some of them still have good bones, great little sturdy concrete block homes still standing. Lots of greenery, too.

Hopefully more corporations and jobs will move to Florida instead of having a retirement dominant population.

More and more gridlock and traffic jams, need to make I-75 and I-95 each 10 lanes on both sides- also create a separate interstate on both coasts that runs parallel for semi-trucks and tractor-trailers only. This will take a lot of the pressure off the roadways, especially when big truckers block the middle and left lanes and choke the free flow of traffic.

I hope you really don’t believe the nonsense you’ve been writing, here and in other threads.
