In this video I'm going to do things a little differently. I am going to tell you the 10 Best Places To Live in Florida According to a LOCAL. You see the thing is, I have been living here in Florida now for over 12 years.
And during this time, I have visited quite a few cities and areas here. So all of the places I mention in this video, are all places I have personally been to myself, and I am recommending them based on my experiences there, and nothing else!
Similar videos I have seen on youtube to this one that talk about the best places to live in Florida, sorta just have a bunch of stock footage, corney music and regurgitate some stats from the internet. That is NOT THIS VIDEO!
No, I have been to all these places, so I am coming to you with a first hand perspective on this cities. None of it is data driven, all experience driven.
I know there are people that want to see the data as well, and I may make some future videos about Florida that are more data driven. But it's not really my style, and would be more just to inform you, the viewer.
But I really think that you cannot say somewhere is a good place to live just by googling it on the internet and never actually experiencing it. So I hope this video helps you with your decision on where to live in Florida

Honestly, I had planned on moving there 10 years ago but it seemed to slow after being in L.A. Now it is so crazy in California!

I was born and raised in Florida and have been all over the state. I now reside in South Carolina (moved for a job years ago). I was born in Clearwater Beach, Florida and it’s a wonderful place - you are right that it has a small town vibe. I’ve lived in Port Saint Lucie and Fort Pierce as a young child and loved it. The area has since changed and doesn’t have the wonderful “Old Florida” feel that I loved so much as a child. My family moved to Jacksonville, Florida when I was around 8 years old. Jacksonville was a great place to grow up in but the city has changed a lot as well (still have family there). The best sides of town in Jacksonville are the Southside and Beaches (South Jax Beach). When I was in my early 20’s, I moved out to Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida and absolutely loved it! It’s a wonderful, upscale, small beach community. I would always go to St. Augustine on my days off (I was in real estate as well). St. Augustine is my favorite place! Just like you, I can’t explain it as it just has this amazing vibe to me. Anastasia Island (where the beaches are) is so beautiful and natural. I’ve even thought about moving back and living near St. Augustine (maybe Vilano Beach or Anastasia Island). I will say that St. Augustine can get very crowded on the weekends due to it being a tourist town but that’s part of the charm. The Spanish architecture is breathtaking. Another great town/city is Fernandina Beach/Amelia Island. My brother lives there and my husband and I have visited many times. It’s very beautiful and has many historic areas around there as well. Great job on the places that you picked! I have family in Orlando as well and have spent a lot of time there. Tons of things to do but traffic can be a nightmare at times (especially around International Drive). However, traffic has really gotten crazy pretty much everywhere in Florida and in South Carolina (where I live now). South Carolina is beautiful and the people are so nice here but I catch myself missing my home state of Florida often. In fact, I found your channel because I was needing my Florida fix. Thanks for posting all your videos. Very informative and entertaining! 😊
@MichaelBordenaro
@MichaelBordenaro 3 года назад
Wow what a nice story and it's nice to hear from someone else who grew up here. Sounds like I nailed it according to you, and I do believe all these spots are really great picks and St Augustine is definitely the best. I am hoping to relocate there in the future, so much different than Miami. And thanks for posting about Jacksonville, a lot of people have been asking in the comments where are the best spots in Jacksonville, but I have no idea since I havent spent time there. Glad you found the channel😀

This is a great video. Thank you. My wife was concerned with some of the crime stats she heard in Tampa. I had to remind her that we currently live in Metro Detroit and I never hear her saying we need to move out. If she is that worried about crime we should not be living here. Every bigger city has its good and bad parts but convincing her of that is almost impossible.

As a native Floridian, I give a big thumbs down to Orlando! Disney ruined thousands of acres of Old Florida and contributed to urban sprawl. Full disclosure, I’m not a Disney fan, or theme parks in general. Since I’m from north Florida, I’m unfamiliar with the Miami area but Miami Beach is an unnatural beach and floods pretty badly in even mild storms. Also, the sprawl has damaged the Everglades which is terrible. Big thumbs up to St Augustine. I have many fond memories of St Augustine from my youth.
@MichaelBordenaro
@MichaelBordenaro 4 года назад
Glad you liked at least one on my list! But no matter what you or I think about any of these places, it won't stop them from growing and becoming bigger. I have seen other Floridians comment on that growth. But it is something that is basically impossible to stop and happens to all desirable areas in the world

Haven’t lived in Florida in about 20 years but IMO you cant go wrong with the gulf coast (Tampa to Naples). I personally prefer Sarasota but I’ve also lived in Pinellas County. If I had the money and either didn’t need to work or could work from home Boca Grande on Gasparilla Island is my favorite hidden gem. It’s in between Sarasota and Ft. Myers.

Thank you Very much ! Yes, it is true. Here in Miami Beach a handful of the parks and boat ramps are now open by people are supposed to wear the mask in all these places. Which is basically impossible to enforce and I think if they're going to do that they might as well just leave everything closed still. Down here by me in Miami Beach, the beaches are still closed but some areas near Jacksonville and the beach open already

I live in Tampa FL, I moved here from Coral springs FL in the fall of 2019. I've lived in Florida for going on 19 yrs, I love it. I'm a short drive from Clearwater Beach FL, they just recently started back up with the sunset parties. My wife and I love to just sit or walk the beach at sunset it's beautiful. We left Coral Springs cause we needed a change even though we loved south Florida it was time for a change. Plus I got a great deal on 1.3 acres of land in a gated subdivision were we built our dream home. We never run out of things to do, everything is only a few hours drive away every couple of months we go drive down to the Keys. You hit on a lot of great places, I can't argue with one thing. I would like to you to add one thing though. Lately people have been moving to Florida and six months later they're moving back home. It takes a good year to year an a half to really get into the Florida lifestyle. Let them know that and if they can stick it out they'll end up loving Florida as much as we do. Enjoyed your post.

Good for you listing places you have been to and experienced. Life is about living in a place and catching its vibe, and not about C of C stats, etc. You listed most of my favorite spots, with the Palm Beaches being #1 on the East Coast, and Sarasota #1 on the West Coast. I have stayed in Sunny Isles 3 times and like it, and love Coral Gables, but it is even further south! My grandparents lived in Dunedin, so I spent lots of time at Clearwater Beach, so many great memories there over a period of 30 years. The greater Tampa area has a lot of diversity (love the Hyde Park area), and more affordable than South FL, with more Midwestern expats, so not the Northeast intensity of South FL, where many tend to bring NY-NJ with them! I am not a fan of Orlando, though Winter Park is very nice. I do not want to live inland in FL, and most of Orlando is so new that it feels like living in a theme park everywhere! Naples is OK for retirees, but not enough there for me. The only city you did not mention (that is real nice) is Destin, in the Panhandle. St Augustine does give you a break from summer heat, but also gives you cooler winter days, which can be a turnoff. The crowds on George St are a bit much, too, and I am not sure if there is enough culture there, but it is a beautiful place, and the first destination for Flagler and his developments. There are other coastal towns that are pretty nice north of Palm Beach, but you generally have to drive elsewhere to get to things. Las Olas and much of Ft. Lauderdale is nice, but loved to death, so I will take WPB/Palm Beach. Every city in America has dodgy and ritzy areas, so glad you shared from your experience, and gave folks a good sampler.

Great video Michael! I'm 63 and I grew up in Temple Terrace, a town in the Tampa metro area. I went to UF and then moved away to Texas for some 27 years. The way I think of Florida is essentially this: Northern Florida, the pan handle, and over I-10 to Jacksonville, and I-75 down to Gainesville, is the most southern part of the "deep south". Orlando is full of people who work at Disney and its supporting hotel industry. The Tampa area is laced with mid-westerners because of I-75, while the east coast is laced with northeasterners due to I-95. Tampa has middle-class mid-westerners, while St.Petersburg and Clearwater have middle-class northeasterners. 40 miles north up I-75 from Tampa is Brooksville. Street bike riders rendezvous in Brooksville each weekend to cruise the country roads of north Florida, while the State Park Service runs Brooksville's 8x3 mile Croom dirt bike riding park. North Florida is laced with rural motocross tracks. Ocala is famous for its horse farms. Temple Terrace, originally a hunting resort in Tampa that had one of Florida's first golf courses, is a dead-ringer for the movie, "Caddie Shack", as the kids all wanted to Caddie for the Cincinnati Reds! If you can brave the humidity, Florida has a lot to offer.

We raised seven kids coming down here once maybe twice a year but now we own a home here. We really never run out of things to do and we live the beaches beautiful white sand . We are now taking grandkids where we took our kids . It is very affordable but u will spend more on food because who wants to cook with so many great places to eat and so many nice bars also . It is a great place . I have been all over the state of Florida except northeast but we do love places like Ilamorada. I also find this place has reàlly changed over the years most hotel have changed into condos. When we were still renting condos we found the Splash was a big hit with the kids. Pier park is great every store u can imagine right across from pier and beach . My electric bill runs high in this heat but besides that I love it here. I am very close to water .

I picked St Augustine. It’s exactly as you described although job opportunities are limited. It’s a 30 minute drive to Jacksonville. I used to live in Cocoa Beach actually Patrick Air Force Base when i was still in the military and I loved it but I don’t know what civilian opportunities are there except Harris Corp which makes radios for the military

St Augustine is my favorite spot, not necessarily for economic opportunity, but more for the overall lifestyle and vibe. Most working folks may need to commute to Jacksonville for work, but living in St Augustine is probably one of the BEST spots in all of FL 👌

I've been quite a few places throughout Florida, and have family in Melbourne Beach and Tampa, I Love the Keys so much but not sure I want to live there full time. Thank You for the Local List

Sounds like you are basically a local also so I'm really glad you enjoyed the list😊I like the keys for visiting as well but I definitely would not want to live there. Too isolated and vulnerable to hurricanes for my taste
