If you don't like it here, leave! No ones stopping you.
Can't make it on 1 job, work 2. I worked 2 jobs for years, and no one felt sorry for me! Can't find a job you like, too bad, work the jobs that are available!
If you live near any city in any state to earn more money, your cost of living will be higher! The cost of living here is lower in many ways then other parts of our state, and in other areas of this country. But if your not educated, your going to find it hard in every state. The state of Florida has a high school drop out rate of 42%.
If you move to Florida or any state in the south, your going to make less then up north, but it'll cost you less to live here too.
If your retired, you need to choose a place to live that you can afford. And usually lower priced areas have high crime rates cause criminals like to live cheaper too!
Crime in this area is 4 times lower then the Atlantic Ocean side of Florida. Do we have crime here, yes, but it seems the sheriff's dept. does a good job at keeping it in control. Check out the stats., crime is always higher by percentage in states with loose gun laws like Florida. The laws make it easier for criminals to get guns too.
Now the good, we get 365 days a yr. with no snow.
We are 60 miles from Orlando, Tampa, and St. Pete. and all their entertainment.
Our county is fairly quiet, traffic, etc., even during the day as compared with any city I've mentioned.
We have plenty of shopping, and restaurants nearby, with more being built. If you look at rt. 19 in Hernando, then look north in Citrus or south to Pasco, our county has done a much better job in controling the ugly sprawl.
You can't find a perfect area anywhere, but you can find a place right for you.
