Perhaps you feel that way because of the area you live in?

I think the people in Orlando are awesome, some of the most awesome people I've ever met in my life. There's good and bad people everywhere you go, Orlando definitely has a great share of great people, you just have to find them

When I lived here before a lot of people I knew were negative

Ive been meeting both old and new friends who all seem a lot more positive now and Ive always perceived Orlando as a fun, positive, upbeat place to be

Jobs here need to pay more, plain and simple. Las Vegas has the same problem. The cost of living and pay rates of jobs simply dont match up and many people are suffering in poverty because of it, Orlando is the 2nd hungriest city in the US because of the ridiculous wages employers are paying. And look at job ads on craigslist, the requirements are ridiculous, and they all pay around $7.67-$9 an hr

Jobs and Pay Scale would be number one

Crime and Traffic are everywhere else on at various degrees

the Pay Scale and lack of jobs that require a education is crazy.....and the ones that do require a education dont pay anything.
