Haha, not all of us here are that nice. You will learn that soon, especially in South FL.

I encounter more nice people than not nice. The only rude person I've enountered lately is a cardiologist who I will not mention his name, but why oh why do doctors have to berate RN's? Don't they know we are on the same team? And when they write orders that are illegible, that is a MAJOR safety factor. And we are advocates for our patients, for goodness sake.

Sorry to get off topic a little.

No way I would ever want to live there.

For a much better living experience try Southwest Ranches. Now that's a NICE place! Way too expensive nowadays though.
Weston is a great place to live , we have been here for nearly eight months and love it .... good schools , beautiful parks and recreational areas , low crime , diverse yes besides a lot of professional hispanics and New Yorkers , there are Asians and Indians ( Hindus ) here we also have friends from the UK and Holland . Excellent medical facilities like the Cleveland Clinic and Dan Marino Childrens hospital ....... Marino , Bernie Kosar , Jeff Conine , Angelo Dundee , Jason Taylor , Eddie Jones and a slew of other professional athletes live here . Property values are maintained , the community is well kept , green and manicured and has one of the highest incomes per capita for cities under 60,000 residents in the entire country !!!

The city does not want to micro manage your lives and please tell me where it has a third world feel , what an absurd comment ?

Actually maybe they just want to keep people like you out , which is fine by me !!

I lived in Alpharetta , Georgia for nearly seven years and Weston is every bit as nice and upscale with much less traffic . I agree with most comments here on South Florida and Miami in particular , but Tallricks comments on Weston are simply wrong .

Derek I agree Weston is nice, but just so far out west. Weston is practically next to the Everglades. Duely said he was a young guy, Weston isn't a place for a young single man. If he has any sort of social life he will be out near the beaches and doing that drive out to Weston after drinking will not be a great idea. He will be kicking himself if he lives out in Weston and has a social life. Weston is great if you have a family with children...
