I love Dealy Plaza and the grassy knolls along with the Book Depository Building as the Kennedy assassination still intrigues me today. I would love to visit Dallas someday and see where this historic event took place as I have seen it only on YouTube and Google Street view.

When I was there I was afraid to walk past South street...well I did and had no problem and met some cool people; however, in general Philly can be rough...but so can Dallas...

I hate to break the news to you but Miami is like 4 hours from Sarasota...South Florida is generally ANY part of Florida South of Tampa...what does this have to do with Dallas vs Philadelphia is beyond me, but I'll answer your challenges. Our part of Florida is usually referred to as: South Central Florida or the Gulf/Golden Coast.
