theme parks
hotels
clubs
driving distance to Miami, Tampa

If you're the clubbing type be ready to leave the club at 1am.

Pretty much all of this (except the girls and club, married

). Looking for a change of pace. Job, housing etc are non issues. Have some family right outside Orlando. I have kids so school is big issue. Its a different way of life and as much as I love the burgh, it can get old.

It's flat, hot and boring...

 

[bomb squad records]

I have family in Orlando and have also been thinking about moving down. I just don't know how easy it will be to find work 

 

[jonbx5]

have a job set up

 

[pookieman]

I made the move to Orlando from Toronto in 06....for a woman at that....Orlando is boring as hell....only good thing is the outlet malls. Women are wack, dudes are hood, its racist as all hell...clubs are wack....cost of living is low tho.....

I got a cousin out there that I visit every couple of years or so, the above plus the humidity makes Orlando a no-go for me.

 

[mplsdunk]

yeah, orlando sucks.  i'd move further south.  northern and central fl are. 

 

[mangudai954]

I have no idea why someone would want to move to Orlando except for a High paying job or school. Don't do it.

 

[me no pass]

FL in general is meeeh to settle down in..great place to visit though

 

[swooshallday]

FL > any midwest and northern states

[Shanegerous]

I had fun when I visited Orlando...but then again I was only there for 5 days.

It's a struggle out here just go wherever the money takes you

If your well paid you will be straight anywhere

People often forget that Florida is the deep south...

 Pookie pretty much summed it up. My hometown is about 30 mins away from Orlando & the entire surrounding area is like this. My suggestion is unless it's a high paying job that you're moving for, don't do it fam.

Florida isn't true "South" though. The high amount of transplants over the years makes a difference. Go to the rural areas, yeah that's Southern, but a high amount of people aren't native Southerns for generations like in other states (Georgia, Bama. etc)

Depends on the area. I think this hold true more so for South Florida than North or Central.
