Tampa, Who's Going?

tampa is a shithole of a town
You must have been on the shithole side of town.
Of the four major Florida metropolises, Tampa is by far the most liveable IMO.
Jacksonville is rednecky (and a little too cool in the wintertime for me). Lots of rebel flags and horns that play "dixie" if you are into that sort of thing.
Miami and surrounding areas is a concrete jungle of mass clusterfuck, half of which does not speak English.
Orlando is a living landlocked hell of shopping centers and chain restaurants with snot nosed kids whining
Tampa I can deal with ... nice downtown area on the water, nice beaches. It has its bad areas and rednecks too ... but you can find some nice spots in the Tampa Bay area.
Florida overall ... There are some decent towns in the panhandle, but Sarasota and Naples are by far the best two places to live in my book.

I can buy that. But even in Sarasota or Naples if you’re a mad angry hateful depressing person you will be a mad angry hateful depressing person there as well as you would be in central Miami or central Memphis
-
Some folks would disagree about that assessment... And it's a hell of a lot warmer there in the winter than Ohio. Nice place to visit, wouldn't want to live there.
A summer in Florida is worse than a winter in Ohio. As far as being able to tolerate the weather

That is very true Gip. Tampa is a good example, you can live a nice life there, or you can be a miserable fuck there.
I don't doubt that Memphis is a shithole, but it would be less of a shithole if Ghoolie wasn't there.

And he keeps telling us that he’s moving to Las Vegas. Now based on things I’ve heard Las Vegas is pretty much a Sheet hole to to a great extent when you get off the strip. At least parts of it.

Any town is what you make of it. I have been in Spirit Lake Iowa for the past week and I have done just fine in the place that nobody else wanted to go to
Memphis is a murder capital of the world, Gip. It is a place where animals are abused ( Jut this week a puppy put in a hot grill, another one shot and had its legs broken. Blacks shooting each other, stealing anything that isn't bolted down, and breaking everything else.
A colleague of mine, President of the Memphis Chamber just last week murdered in the high rent district of downtown after a fundraiser for the poor. Trust me, Memphis is an ungodly shithole.

Thank God you are moving to Vegas where the murder rate was only 58 in one day last year.?

Well maybe the good ol' USA isn't so bad afterall. The worst 13. St. Louis 21. Baltimore 41. New Orleans 42. Detroit in the top 50. Again perception isn't always reality. Memphis doesn't make the world top 50. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_cities_by_crime_rate
Worst country Brazil, by far. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_by_murder_rate
The following 50 cities have the highest murder rates in the world of all cities not at war, with a population of at least 300,000 people, and all relevant data available online.[1][2]

Captiva, Sanibel, Naples, Marco Island all nice......too bad the Red Tide is ruining everything.
My godparents and their kids lived in Tampa for decades right off of Busch Blvd by Busch Gardens.

I previously posted my local.. Wife and I spent the late morning and early afternoon on the beach Monday.. No issues..
I grew up 30 miles east of Cleve but have been here since 73.. Red tide happens.. Kinda like Lovebugs.. No one can answer why absolutely.. Just happens with varying degrees of severity.. One thing is certain after an outbreak of red tide.. It will be a banner yr for shrimp..

Some relatives too I haven't seen in a long time.
