I wish Key West was on here because IMO its the coolest place in Florida.
Compelled to Reply - I agree with your post Boca +1 and Hialeah is way worse than Miami, the ugliest place on this list. I have actually been to most of these places on this list and Hialeah is the worst. Now Carol City I think is pretty bad, but I haven't been there to experience.

+1 Davie, nice place to raise a family, tries to preserve it's "ruralness" and open space which is counter to other South FL cities, generally high quality of life. East Davie isn't nice though.
+1 Palm Harbor. Small "hills" but close to the water, also family friendly, less cookie cutter than other parts of FL.

-1 Daytona Beach. Nuff said!
-1 Lauderhill. I keep on seeing it on the news for the past 2 weeks.
-1 Fontainebleau. Not even incorporated, but it's great if you like and obscene amount of traffic and run down neighborhoods.
