Anything north of Orlando, East of Austin, South of Nashville, and West of Virginia Beach is a Southern City to me

might not be a bad change of pace for me, i grew up in Chicago, I probably would enjoy the Midwest vibe, the cold would take some getting used to, I know the people would be ten times more down to earth than down here in the Miami area. I bet itd be ten times easier to get a job too. I might get super bored though, I don't know if I could do it

Don't want to belabor the point, but Lafayette is an hour's drive from Indianapolis and a 2 hour drive from Chicago....you get bored, just drive up to Chicago or down to Indy.

Lafayette is a college town, isn't it? Purdue University is located over there.

Yes, Purdue is in West Lafayette, across the Wabash River from Lafayette. A fine university with many activities (football, basketball games, classes, entertainers at the fabulous Hall of Music) for locals.

I understand that some folks speak with that brooklynese-sounding YAT accent, but Black NO residents have a distinctly Southern accent.
You are missing my point entirely.

OP didn't say whether he/she wanted a warm or cold climate of even if they wanted to stay in Florida...

South Florida (Dade, Broward, Palm Beach), Orlando (Orange/Seminole Counties), Tampa, Jacksonville - to me are all the same. A large metropolitan area. I don't blame the OP for wanting to GTFO.

Without knowing what the OP intends to do instead of a customer service job its tough to recommend an area. I've never known an entry level customer service job to pay well. Even the managerial jobs are still what I would call mediocre in pay. (yes, there are always exceptions).
