Take that, Weston!

Just kidding...

But really....Coral Springs is fantastic and seems to be overlooked on these boards. It has everything + fantastic neighborhoods. I really like being nearby this nice city. However, I am not in it but I conveniently use their wonderful restaurants, stores and visit their neighborhoods.

I almost had culture shock moving here from the Weston /Davie area. I was so used to mostly Spanish everywhere. I have no problem with that! Just had to repeat things or speak spanish to servers and stuff. But when we started going out in CS I noticed that everyone was speaking English...was very strange and different. Like another world.

Nice mall too. If I have to run to Macy's for something quickly I do like Coral Ridge Mall a lot. Much nicer than Pembroke Lakes or Broward Mall. Broward Mall though defiinitely ranks higher to me than Pembroke Lakes.

Curious how they come up with these rankings. I'd much rather be in Weston/Davie than Coral Springs. And CS has a lot more bad pockets than Weston and Davie.

I don't hate Coral Springs at all, overall pretty nice place that I visit often as I live right next door, I just don't see it being better than the Weston/Davie/Cooper City/West Pembroke Pines areas.

I don't think Weston even meets Money magazine's criteria of a "City".

For crissakes...you guys don't even have a bookstore!

I agree CS is pretty nice .. yes a few bad pockets ... but overall a nice place to live . Also do not see it as better than Weston or Cooper City although I like it better than Pembroke Pines .
