Maybe we're just so repressed where ever we come from but there's something so overwhelmingly liberating about being in a place you'll never see again that makes Americans complete douche bags. I don't know but folks here will drive like crap, not hold doors open, cut in front of you while walking, spill drinks on you and it won't even phase them.

As far as solitude among your neighborhood, that's just luck of the draw. You get along or you don't. Not sure what that has to do with Vegas, if you have friends at work or from other activities that should be enough. If you don't, well, that's probably your own fault and not the city's.

I live in florida and the old people here are the worst. I worked in a bakery and they were so rude. They think because they are old you are suppose to kiss their ass. They would actually throw things at you if they got mad enough. Plus they are the worst drivers in the world. Most roads here you do at least 60mph and they will pull out in front of you doing 15mph. Their reflexes are just too slow.

This is an interesting blast-from-the-past thread.

I'm in Japan, and my 1st choice is Southern Nevada.

After that, Florida has been my other consideration. CLEARWATER or FT.LAUDERDALE in particular.

Anyone reading this forum now that would discourage either of those places. I re-read the thread and beaches and sports seems to be the TAMPA/i.e. CLEARWATER choice. For me, sports is a very low priority. Actually everything about Vegas appeals to me (except I do wish beaches were there as well, but can't have it all).

I've driven around FLORIDA...and the beaches were the biggest appeal and I do like cities...but I really didn't care for Tampa at all, but I did find coastal Miami interesting (but unaffordable), and northern of Miami just seemed more interesting - i.e. up near Ft. Lauderdale, etc.

In short, anyone have anything to say about CLEARWATER, FL or about FT LAUDERDALE, FL?

Tampa is the arm pit of Florida, don't move there unless you can afford a house around $700,000+I don't have any first hand experience with Henderson, so I cannot comment there.

I think in order to live in Florida, you have to really like humidity. My choice between Florida and Henderson,NV would be Henderson of course.
We have beaches here... Lake Mead. Lake las Vegas, Desert Shores, The Lakes.
