Where is the safest place to live in florida?|108113

I am thinking of relocating eventually, don_t like the cold winters in new england and liked florida a lot. Is the west coast safer than the east coast, less populated?

California. Florida is flat and full of leather skinned retirees.California is mountainous with vast ,sparsely populated stretches of beautiful coastline above San Francisco.Come here if you want to be happy.Everything north of Cal. is also geologically beautiful but more gloomy,rainy weather.I have been here for fifty years plus seen the world and know of what I speak.One really bad quake every hundred years or so is all that you need to fear if you need to fear.

It is pretty populated everywhere down there. My brother lives close to Orlando. He has lost power a couple of times due to hurricanes but no major damage. If you are on the coast of course you run the risk of the full brunt. I would say the gulf side would be safer but sometimes they curl around and come right up in there.

Florida is losing alot of jobs due to the high prices of houses and land. Construction has definitely _went south._ Its a nice place to visit but I have lived here for two years now and am moving to VA soon. If you do plan on heading this way, Gainesville and West Palm still the growing areas of FL.

The south - central areas are the safest as far as storms are concerned. Also warmer Winters, south of the I 4 divider. Both coasts are crowded with the Gulf my favorite. Employment is pretty good here, too.

I hear that ppl are leaving FLA cause it_s getting to costly to live anymore....I guess if you want a hurricane every year anywhere is the best place to live in FLA

Disneyland

Tampa area

England (UK).
