Why I don't go to Florida

This isn’t the end all of lists, I’ll add to it in the future. These are observations I’ve made over the years on family vacations. The fly-in/fly-out crowds don’t see a lot of this. You really have to drive through the state to get a real taste.

This is in no particular order:

The highest points in Florida are landfills converted to parks.
Car Washes are necessary every few days to clean the dirt and bugs off off.
Every homeowner needs to armor their home with bullet proof glass or storm shutters.
The elected state government.
The public education system (evicerated by state government)
Trump lives there.
Its the lightning capitol of the country.
Hurricanes
Floods
Fire Ants
Love Bugs
Aligators
Crazy expensive home owners insurance
Miami is sinking
Disney is unaffordable
The water table is only a foot below ground.
Lack of diversity
Home to one of the craziest retirement communities in the country.
Outdoor pools need cages to keep out bugs and critters.
Brownouts
Sargassum seaweed
Red tide
Gas stations don’t stock bottled non-sweet tea/coffee. It’s either sweet or more sweet.
Dashcams are practically required equipment because of the nutto drivers.
