Love how you refer to publix subs! I was an Air Force wife from.lakeland florida. We traveled to several states through our career and I never wanted to come back toFlorida. My husbands parents were still here and our son and hos family. We did end up having to relocate back to florida but we retored in tallahassee. I was only happy with one thing and that was publix supermarkets.
There is no cheap hotels there. I visited Florida twice last summer and went to Orlando, Tampa, Daytona, and Miami. Everything there was about twice more expensive than things at hime
Daytona is trash. I lived in Florida for many years and went to beaches all over the state. Why Daytona is a popular destination is beyond me. Like a trailer park on the beach.
used to deliver food really late at night in pine hills, of course i was strapped but nothing really happened. Maybe i was really lucky. I wouldn't recommend it. But if you stay in your lane you should be alright.
I was there as a tourist, and i was fine. Mind you I'm French and went or mostly art night by myself, just know how to carry yourself, mind your business and don't make yourself look like a target (no i didn't have a fire on my person as i didn't know if stand your ground law applied to tourists)
I lived in Denver, Colorado for many years and I've been mugged on the street in broad daylight, my apartment was broken into and ransacked, and I witnessed a shooting. I've now lived in Miami for 15 years and (knock on wood) not one problem.
FL native and lifelong resident. I was surprised to see my home town on the list (Lake City). What Nick didn't make clear is that the overwhelming majority of reported crimes in our town are of the non-violent type. Our murder rate is about one every three or four years. Sexual assault is higher with an average of six to eight per year.
@@stevenhenry4127 Hi Steven, typical N FL mild. So far we've only had a handful of cool mornings, I believe the lowest was one or two days of around 48, quickly followed by zooming back up to 80s. Wrap and peel as the usual FL winter weather!😀
We are in Lake City right now trying to find a home to buy. We came from MS and we are amazed at how many sirens run up and down Hwy 90 every day. I mean a lot of sirens. And the homeless population is surprisingly higher than we imagined. Columbia county better step up its game before Lake City becomes another leftist city.
@@deborahsimpson2732 , well Miami just topped his list, a staunch Republican population. Colombia county is very poor. Try Alachua, wait don't - full of highly educated pinko's. The uneducated & poor, all go to Columbia county. Bonus, lower taxes too.
For someone like me, that has travelled the world, and lived in war torn countries and high crime counties amongst others.. these dangerous cities are quite tame to me
Sure, I get it. But did you try to raise a family or have an actual home in those places? No? Riiiiight. You can travel to all kinds of hellholes, but LIVING in them is the hard part.
Perfectly stated my friend and by the way Florida is an open carry state now. If your looking for trouble you can find it anywhere not just the cities mentioned.
Having lived in S. Florida, none of these surprise me. My wife had a facility in North Miami Beach that she had to go to fairly often. The problem is you have to drive through one of the worst areas in Miami to get to North Miami Beach. Anytime I took her to this facility, I was carrying my 1911, my CZ83 backup, two loaded magazines for both, a box of extra ammo for each pistol and a fighting knife in my belt. You can never be too careful.
@@AmericanaGardens No, but it was somewhere you locked your doors and made sure you had a round chambered before entering. What was crazy is 1.5 miles in you ran into a neighborhood with $1 million + houses.
@@damndisplace07 WHEN was the last time you attempted to drive to North Miami Beach? I doubt a keyboard warrior from one of the gated communities through out S. FL ventures into areas like I described; aren’t many Publix or Starbucks there. One of the policies for this facility was no visitations at night. The building was “locked down” at sunset for the protection of the residents and staff. Sound like a place you and your buddies would “hang out” at with your ridiculously raise pickups that have never seen mud?
@@alluringbliss4165 You look for the signs: Pawn shops, payday loans, pay by the minute cell phone shops (Cricket?), bars on the windows of houses and stores, general run down appearance, shitty cars, loud music coming from shitty cars. General malaise--homeless, hookers, drug dealers.
Orange BLOSSOM Trail!! It's always been nasty... grew up in Orlando 1983-1996. I live in Naples FL now. Btw I think its pronounced Oh-pah-lock-ah and I've never been more paranoid in my life than the many days and nights I've spent in Florida City!. Lol, great content! Thanks👍👍
Family member has lived in Miami for some 40yrs. Not one single incident. Not one. They have no dogs, no cameras, none. Avg neighborhoods in these 40yrs. This video is a little misleading; stay away from seedy areas, drugs, etc. You will be fine.
When I was a kid, Orlando was a beautiful city and, we went there without any concerns about crime. We lived about 50 miles away out on a barrier Island, our doors were never locked and the car keys hung in the ignition. Now,, Orlando and Orange County are run by Democrat Administrations who also are not very supportive of their law enforcement agencies and have enacted numerous policies over the years that either drove away good police officers, or prevented the hiring of good police officers. It seems like there there has been a serious spike in crime since sheriff Berry left there about 15 years ago.. Couple this with other Democrat policies such as being soft on crime, legalizing drugs, and sweeping problems under the rug so they can hide them from tourists rather than deal with them. Then add in skyrocketing population growth, much of it coming from big crime ridden northern cities and a large illegal immigrant population. The employment base is heavy in construction, hospitality, and other service industries.. Its the perfect recipe for a new Detroit with a warm climate!
I live in central Florida and I can’t wait to leave. Had my car broken into twice and my wife’s car got stolen. Drivers are terrible and people out here always looking for trouble. Tourists and snow birds moving here not to mention cost of living is crazy. Rent at a halfway decent place is around 1800-2000$ a month. Buying a house? A fixer upper could cost you high 200k.
I grew up in miami during the 70's, 80's and 90's. The best thing I ever did in my life was to say goodbye to my friends and tell my wife and boys that I love them and we are moving. We are now in North Dakota and it is cold as hell up here and we miss the beaches. Especially Naples and Ft. Myers, this is our frozen ocean of safety and even though my family is safer i still have my weapons.. These people are great up here and my kids and grandkids are safer up here. They also love the snow!
@@jean6178 we love it here. We've had to get used to the cold and snow. Serious crime is almost unheard of. Well worth us changing our lives for the safety of my grandkids. Pretty nice people for the most part. Not much to do in Grand Forks though, you have to travel a little bit.
I live in Central Florida for over 40 years and it's freaking dangerous on the roads more than anything else with all these damn fools moving down here and the old folks
I got run off the road by some lunatic tailgater on 19 going through the Ocala Forest. What the heck? There was no one coming from the other direction, and I scooted over so they could pass. Didn't matter. Wonder if it was crazy methhead from the woods, although they try to convince you the problem's been solved.

I live in Santa Rosa County! It’s safe unless your daughter goes for a walk in your safe neighborhood, and a bear chases her! Happened the other day! Santa Rosa has an issue right now of overbuilding, and taking the bears habitats. There used to be nothing but woods behind us, and now it’s all turning into new subdivisions. Our beaches are nice though!
No matter what you have to admit Florida is much nicer than a lot of other states the roads are so nice most of the cities are so clean and so many great natural things to see and beautiful beaches everywhere.
As some that is born and raised in Opa-Locka and Miami Ngl the way you talked about everyone and especially the poor (including Florida city) rubbed me the wrong way. Saying people in poverty are unintelligent is hella disrespectful.
@@thedirtybubble9613 The key word to Miami is "NW"...Stay away from the "NW" part and you are pretty safe...Until you start hitting "Perrine" and east of the freeway as you get further south...
I moved from Pennsylvania to Tampa in 2000. It was great! All of Tampa had a small, community oriented feel, not much traffic, easy to make friends, etc. Then in 2003 I moved to Miami to go to college, and ended up living there until 2016 when I couldn't take it any longer. I could write a book, but congestion, traffic, lack of the English language, bad drivers.... I know Opa Locka, Florida City, etc. very well, too well, yes very, very dangerous. I moved back to my old area of Tampa (Riverview) and to my surprise, the population boomed in that short time, and traffic and congestion now are just as bad as Miami. Don't get me wrong, Tampa is 100% better than Miami, but damn.... Apartments went up in every single farm and free square inch of land. I can't even leave the house for a good three hours in the morning and afternoon because you ain't getting anywhere fast. Florida is full.
you should have seen Tampa in the 80's . I remember riding in my dad's station wagon as a kid ,an hour of the drive to get there from Jacksonville, back when the 32208 zip code was a great place to live ,was just passing groves of orange trees, all shopping malls and houses now .
Native Miamian here. Good video. If you visit Miami, just stay in the tourist areas, and even then, there really has been a surge in crime in South Beach at night. Most of the crime over there is committed by tourists. Locals don't linger around South Beach much. It's overrated. Opa-Locka definitely seems more calm these days, but don't let your guard down. It's definitely the place where your car will get broken into. I'm always around the inner city Miami areas, and never had a problem. Just mind your business, and you'll be good. Btw, Hialeah is pronounced *Hi-Uh-Lee-Uh*. 😂
I lived in the southchase area 15 years ago, right off the nice area of orange blossom trail....im hoping its still nice in that area, although i realize sadly, that things can change..
@@407to618 I was born and raised in St.Louis. - have been living in Jacksonville Florida for the past 15 + years. Lived in Orlando area for a time. [ also Lake City, and a long time in Ft. Meyers Florida.]
I live in Tampa Florida where just about everybody has a gun.. It's not as violent as it used to be but it is definitely definitely dangerous in certain neighborhoods to walk at night. People don't play here.
I live in Tampa now. Ive lived in Florida for 31 years but mainly on the beach. There are good areas in Tampa and bad but its getting a LOT better. Downtown has a lot of new construction and trendy condos and apartments. Has a college vibe with a lot to do. Channelside is the cruiseport area. Hockey arena is there as well as trolley cars and Ybor City. Suburb areas are incredible here like Carrollwood and Citrus Park, Westchase and Northdale, Lutz and Land O Lakes. Traffic is bad during morning and rush hours.
I live in Ormond-by-the-Sea, just north beachside of Daytona Beach. Like any other place there are good and bad areas. I've lived here 53 years and I know which areas are dangerous. You're right, we are a tourist town and the locals dread certain times of the year when the crazies from other states flood the beach. But all in all it's pretty safe here and a lovely place to live. In Daytona Beach discretion is the better part of valor.
Same here. Lived 14 years in Hollywood Beach and now living in Miami Beach. Both beautiful beach cities. I've walked around both all hours of the day and night - safely.
Levy county isn’t bad it’s where I’m from. It’s just farming. Most of north Florida is just like being in Mississippi.Perry county doesn’t exist you are pointing to Dixie county. The city of Perry is the forestry capitol of the south and is in Taylor county. Also while Jacksonville is the largest city it is because the entirety of duval county besides Baldwin and a couple other towns. Where are Belle glade and pahokee on this
Nick, I think you're confusing Panama City and Panama City Beach. They're two different cities with two different personalities. I'm not saying it makes much of a difference danger-wise. However, there are no pretty beaches in Panama City nor fancy shopping. Panama City is a paper mill town supported by an Air Force Base, Tyndall. Panama City Beach has the pretty beaches and fancy shopping. No one comes to Panama City unless it's work related or for fishing. The tourists all go to Panama City Beach. The best we have to offer in PC is Target and Uncle Ernies.
after hurricane Michael, out of state people have moved in and they're the real reasons why our crime rate moved up (I've unfortunately met a lot of these people as well as loca news).
@Steven W I totally agree. We’ve lived in Wash DC, San Antonio, Cheyenne, Japan, and Dayton, OH. Each had bad spots. In fact DC, San Antonio, and Dayton have much, much worse (and dramatically larger) bad parts of town. Places you shouldn’t/couldn’t drive in at night. I don’t believe PC is that dangerous at all. The fact there is confusion between PC and PCB in this video, really makes me skeptical of the “danger” metrics and comparisons to begin with.
Both Panama City and Panama city beach are tourists destinations. When people's talking about Panama City, they are referring to the Panama City metro area, consisting of gulf and Bay counties
I've lived in Daytona since i was 11 and I'm now 39. I've stayed in their cheap motels, I live in and have walked home from work at night, in a part of town you showed in this video, raised my kids here..and I cam honestly say I've never been a victim of a violent crime. Yes, I know a ton of people who have, but wether or nor u become a victim all depends on how you carry yourself really. Financially, this place sucks, but I can honestly say I don't live in fear...at all. When I'm in the other cities surrounding Daytona, that are not poverty stricken, that's when I get harassed, by its residents and their law enforcement...I was 2 towns over and got pulled over for a "rolling stop" and was asked by the cop over 5 times "why are you in Port orange" and my response of "I'm driving through to take my daughter and my grandson home" wasn't good enough." However, I've never had any issues here in Daytona 🤷♀️
You dared to be"poor in public"! You feind,you.kidding...Sorry you were treated that way.personally,I think it's due to the older midwesterners with thier mean spirited,"I. Got mine so fk you" attitudes.Hang in there.
Bet Gov. DeSantis is watching this, and is like, "This is why I will not defund the police! I will take all the police officers that left agencies with mandates, and militarize them, so that they can put those criminals in their rightful place...IN HELL!!!"
It's nice to think anyone can get a handle on America's problems, but I think we're headed 3rd World--think Sao Paulo, Favelas, that kind of thing. It's a slide that you don't pull out of.
I’m sure this is likely true about any city, but Jacksonville is truly a tale of vastly different neighborhoods. I moved my family here about a year ago and we live in a very quiet and friendly part of town, apparently. I have no complaints about our immediate area. That said, downtown, Arlington and Northside aren’t places I care to go unless I absolutely have to.
came to jax from Chicago. lived in muray hill/riverside area most of my stay. in 8 years living in chicago in various neighborhoods....never got messed with once. in two years of Jax living, been shot at by a guy who tried to break in to my bedroom at 5am, almost got killed by a crackhead who was trying to beat a woman to outside of my apartment, and almost got robbed in broad day light right outside of a publix.
I was born in Pine Hills (on Mercy Drive which they also call “Pine Kills” in addition to “Crime Hills”)…we got out fairly quick in the 80s. It’s gotten slightly better now, as well as the Parramore district, but I still wouldn’t go there at night! (Also, it’s Orange Blossom Trail, not Orange Beach Trail…I know I’m splitting hairs there). Lived in Volusia County most of my life, and even worked in an inner city school in Daytona. You’re 100 percent right, Daytona (or “Dirt-tona as a lot of people call it) can get pretty crazy after dark!
Apollo Beach isn't too bad. The People are crass, the drivers are worthy of front row parking by federal mandate. But it has beaches, access to I75, and a weed dispensary.
@@TheOnlyOneStanding8079 every city has it's good and bad sides never been to the atl but the city is growing overall I think it's great place to live.
Not sure how this video ended up on my feed but I'm glad it did. Informative and overall very entertaining. My brother lived in Florida until he passed away a decade ago. I visited a bunch of times but never really cared for the state overall. I had to subscribe if only to see what you have to offer next.
Every time we visit Florida it seems to be getting way worse, no matter where we go. My brother lives in an upscale neighborhood and at night tons of people roll in checking parked cars stealing anything they can find even garden hoses and irrigation control boxes! Porch pirates are stealing packages so often that people are having stuff delivered to their work. It's a mess.
Many Brazilians go to live in Florida thinking that there is a sea of flowers there. The bad parts they don't count. Brazilians are deluded with Florida.👎
It does depend on where in Florida you are. Having lived in a high crime northern city, coming here I saw a decrease in the crime I was used to. Also it does help living in a gated community.
Dear James H, I don't know what type of "upscale neighborhood" your brother lives in but it can't be that "upscale" if at night "tons of people roll in checking parked cars" etc. Just saying...
I passed through Florida many years ago. It was all new and strange to me at the time. It seems that the suburbs worked when people had their income worked out, had their head together, and had their life together. Commuting, even for employment, seems to be failing as more ideal. Thank you for sharing helpful videos!
Serious injury, murderers, death due to Negligence, human suffering, and animal suffering means something needs to be done despite few options. It seems agriculture gets ruled out due to certain political reasons and reasoning. Since public schools are funded by tax payers there is the possibility of political duress influencing the study plan. Not all students know a full appreciation for a career as a high tech wizard. Poor grades and dropping out can be disastrous for most. It is only the few self taught and drop outs who have been successful. How much does this relate to crime in these areas?
For those of you who did not grow up in Florida there's and important piece of missing information. A lot of "hardcore" Floridians hate newcomers coming to Florida. They don't like people who are liberal and well you know. They will go to any extent to "keep their Florida pure " including making people fear moving to Florida. Also, even though this guy did not "say" poor or black communities, those of us who live in Florida know the neighborhoods and those are the neighborhoods he has in this video. This video is the classic passive macro aggression that non-white people deal with. He makes it sounds like people are just running around committing crimes. FALSE. If the law enforcement agencies did better with cleaning up gangs, drugs and gun trafficking the crime rates wouldn't be so high. Most crimes happens within a bubble. You stay out of the bubble you don't deal with the crime. I was born and raised in Florida and I have never been robbed, held at gun point attacked or any of those things AND I have lived in the so called "not safe neighborhoods " so this video is horrible and not an accurate reflection of Florida.
Born and raised in Miami and its really not that bad. Key tips, don’t smile, don’t laugh, don’t look as if you’re happy as these are a sign of weakness. Keep your doors locked, carry a conceal weapon at all times, and again don’t look happy or anything pertaining to you enjoying life! Oh and when commuting make sure your windows are tinted, don’t I repeat don’t do the speed limit, doing the speed limit tends to upset people. When making right turns, make it quick bc making a right turn at a safe speed also tends to upset people. Hopefully this helps
A long while ago, I didn’t get your humor and so, I didn’t like you or your videos… but after popping back in over the years … it’s now one of my favorite channels hahaha
Every state has violent areas. If you go to Miami, Orlando, or Daytona Beach. Just stay in the tourist areas if you dont know the neighbors and you will be safe. This is the case in most cities.
But 500 move out and most move out after 5 years. Father was born there it is really bad. They dress it up with tourist areas. Most of the riftraft from other states go there for "freedom". Other states have bad areas but are good..Florida is bad with good areas.
My paternal grandparents had a winter home in Clearwater, Florida, inland from the beach. They lived south of Gulf to Bay on Belcher. I remember my grandmother telling me in the 70s, that they felt safe keeping their front door unlocked at night. The neighborhood was very safe. However as time went on, in the late 70s early 80s, they said they had to start locking their doors and draw their curtains before dusk because crime was on the rise there. They were beginning to feel unsafe. I remember going to their house during the holidays as a kid with my family for many years....My sister in the last two years has moved from MD to GA to FL to get away from an old boyfriend and to chase a new one. She is in for a rude awakening. I used to love Florida as a kid like I wanted to live there as an adult. My dad always said Florida is not any different than anywhere else, well except the weather and the beach. That stuck with me. I have no desire to live in Florida. I have friends who live in Florida so I get to visit on vacation often which is fine. I have lived in Georgia for over 27 years and I am very happy here. I lived in the Atlanta metro area for nearly 14 years and got out over 10 years ago because of the madness up there to settle in rural Georgia which I love.
I did about a two month TDY stint at Ft. Rucker once. I thought, "Cool, I'll hang out at Panama City' beach on the weekends!" It took only about two hours at Panama City to decide, "I'll think I'll drive slightly further away to Destin on the weekends."

I used to live in Pine Hills. I went to elementary school at Mollie Ray. Back then, it was an F school. Now it's apparently an A. From what I've been told, they're really putting a lot of resources into trying to fix up the area. Paramore near downtown is way worse than a lot of parts in Pine Hills nowadays. I still wouldn't want to live there now, though, to be honest. We used to call it Grime Hills, not Crime Hills, like they do now.
Sarasota is pretty safe but even here you can find yourself in a dangerous neighborhood as a tourist. A few years ago a couple tourists took a late night walk home through a bad area and were murdered. Pretty much all the cities have some dangerous areas - Tampa, St. Pete, Bradenton, Lakeland, as so on.
I understand Florida so my experience was a good one dating back to 1967. My advice is be a taker and by that I mean make it work for you. Don't fall in love with your home, job or its people. Enjoy your stay but plan on moving every 3 to 5 years to stay ahead of the inevitable neighborhood changes. Think of Florida as a state entirely made up of bipolar people, high high's and low low's. What's trendy today will be on a downward trend in that 3 to 5 year time period, just learn to read the signs. Embrace the flaky essence of the sea air.
I've lived in Jacksonville, Florida for the past 14 1/2 years, lived in the Tampa - Lakeland area for about 2 years and did 7 months TDY in the Pensacola area. Out if the three, Jacksonville is the worst. From my visits to Orlando I would say it is second. I've been to every state in the continental u.s more than three times and every major metropolitan area and it's largest cities so I'm going to say it's not a Florida crime problem, it's a whole United States problem... Ever heard of Pine Bluff, Arkansas. The whole county probably has less than 75,000 population and the crime is off the chain. East Cleveland, Ohio.,,, Looks like Bearuit, Lebanon, back in the early eighties. Detroit's Cass Corridor, horrible. Moreno Valley, California.,,, matter of fact, the whole inland empire of Riverside & San Bernardino counties, protect ya neck fa sho. I don't mention the obvious areas because most people already know and or at least heard of them. DAmerikkkah is delusional and illusional yet you have to travel outside this country in order to observe this and innerstand this. The so called countries the u.s. calls third world and uncivilized have far less crime and immorality in preportion to their perspective populations than the u.s and theirs, but you can't see nor comphrend this because the u.s is a master of lies and deception.
I live in North Lakeland in that quadruple homicide was less than a mile from me it was actually my best friend's brother that was killed in his family
You are correct. The problem is that the entire USA is rife with idiots who commit crimes because there aren't strong enough measures in place to deter them. If we brought back public executions, the kind that were VERY PUBLIC, we might get back to some kind of sanity. But of course the liberals will hemm and haww and blame the victims and generally advocate for their criminal base and each year we slide a little further towards the day when a true reckoning will take place. It all could have been avoided had people just stuck to a few basic morals, but no, we had to be like animals with no restraint.

@@Rhtjr-je2li No sir I was raised and went to school in East Cleveland... Rozelle Elementary, Kirk Jr High and Shaw High School. And yes of course it was nice when we moved there from Cleveland in around 1969-70. East Cleveland was John D Rockefellers home and playground back in the early 20th century. I left to go n the service in early to mid 81 and it was still nice yet most of Cleveland was pretty nice prior to the the steel, auto, and heavy industry vacating the Northern industrial States. That started around the late 60's to early 70's and snowballed into the mid eighties when by that time people were losing homes due to banks repossessing them from underemployed people because the jobs left. By the mid to late eighties the the crack epidemic had all but consumed E.C., along with some very corrupt city commissioners, mayor's and police chiefs.

I have been living in Jacksonville for the past three years now and I feel fairly safe. Most of the time, the gun violence is between gangs. Also, a lot of the violence is in the projects on the west side of town so it’s localized.
We live just south of Jacksonville and my husband works in the northwest part of the city, and its exactly how you mentioned it…. Its BAD!!!! its the kind of place that if you got a flat tire… you would just keep driving
I’m a Florida native, spending most of my life in South Florida, but I’ve been around most of the state, too. I can confirm that I always carry my gun with me. Currently living in Homestead, just bought a house in December 2022. It’s certainly improved where I’m at, but the surrounding areas and FLA City can be sketchy as hell
I live in Ocala it's mostly quiet and I like it. Not too much crime. It could be because there are several large correctional facilities here. I keep meeting retired prison guards.
@@Jmack1lla I agree. It's hard for younger people. It was impossible where I came from, across the river from D.C. That's why I came down here. But it's changing now.
What do these cities have in common? Talk amongst yourselves, it'll come to you. Also keep in mind that about 90% of people in Florida are not from Florida.
I grew up in Miami over 50 years ago. There were dangerous areas in Miami then but still saddens me that it’s the number 1 most dangerous place in FL now.
