Why is EVERYONE Leaving Florida? (WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON?)

43 yr old lifelong Floridian here and I’d leave NW FL and would move back down to S FL in a heartbeat if all the gumbies that moved into FL would move out. It’s nuts what it became down there. Bugs, hurricanes, humidity, alligators everywhere no worries for me..Makes me homesick for what it was like 20+ years ago down there and I grew up somewhere that didn’t have a Publix, Walmart, movie theater or anything like that within nearly 40 miles. So move on back to where yall came from, take the complaints, condos and HOAs with, I wish yall the best of luck and let FL return to real Floridians who truly have a love for the real Florida environment

two words Ron Desantis

They don't call it "Flori-duh" for nothing.

Florida is broken

Florida is a dumping ground for all the most ignorant to migrate to from areas that are poor to extreme wealth. What you experience is alot of different people who dont like each other.

To my own research In USA , individuals living in cars due to partial homelessness result from a complex interplay of factors. High housing costs relative to income, stagnant wages, and income inequality drive this issue. Job loss, weak social support, medical expenses, evictions, and lack of affordable housing also contribute, while systemic problems and inadequate policies further perpetuate the phenomenon.

I lived in Florida for 38 years and the lizards are my favorite creatures in Florida I love watching them running around all over the place catching them and the iguanas are amazing creatures to look at and watch just respect them.

Please, please do not come to Texas but if you do, don’t buy or rent in an HOA!

WELL WHAT REASONS YOU WANT? REPUBLICANS, REFUSAL TO SOLVE PROBLEMS FACING THE CITIZENS OF FLORIDA. THERE IS NO CLIMATE PROBLEM, WE NEED TO BUILD GOLF COURSES ON STATE LAND INSTEAD OF WORKING TO PROVIDE PROPERTY INSURANCE THAT IS AFFORDABLE. DEPORTING ALL THE IMMIGRANTS WHO CAME HERE TO MAKE THINGS BETTER AND NOW THERE IS NOT ENOUGH WORKERS TO GET THE JOB DONE! GOOD JOB DESANTIS!

I went to Florida to visit my brother for a couple days. I couldnt get back to Connecticut fast enough. It was like living in furnace.

I live here so please move away! 🤣

Everyone is leaving the NEAR DEAD SEASON has just started, those that exist next spring are going to return north with a shit load of jackass complaints, slow service, no service, too much construction no workers. So if you see an out of state plate in Florida please encourage them to feed the gators..

Thank you Great Recession, Albertsons, and ex-girlfriend. Because of high unemployment, company running itself ot of business, and the last empting my emergency savings, I was left homeless and forced to move away from the state I loved...but the irony is they did me a MASSIVE favor as staying in Florida would've been FAR worse.

Yes, the state is so bad, I'm actually THANKING the Great Recession and my ex for forcing me to move. I still miss my home, but there's simply no going back. The state is FINISHED.

Commie ROn and his gogo boots

Not fast enough I have seen no evidence of it

moving to fl next week! 🎉🎉

I moved out in 2023…best move ever!!! No regrets!!!

Been here five years and I am getting the hell out when my lease is up next summer. It is now very expensive, with horrible traffic getting worse with every passing day. It’s hot as hell almost always- with humidity of course. And , after this dismal election, Florida has yet again proven how disgustingly ruby red it is becoming, nationally and on the state level: Rick Scott. Marco Rubio. Ron Desantis: It’s all yours, Maga, and you can all eat a d*c*

I've got news for you, it's not gonna get better. I feel sorry for the Florida natives but not for the transplants that caused the problem. I live in the Northeast where the weather sucks 6 months a year and people are leaving, it's great!!!

gee, myself moved to Miami from New Orleans, louisiana , after Thanksgiving 1984. 40 years .. my amigoes, clientes are all here.. I can not move .hehe...

The Miami condominium boom of the late 90’s into the millennium set up the RECIPE for Florida to become EXPENSIVE!!!

😂😂😂They are leaving to make way for the new people coming 😂😂😂😂prices will drop as soon as more hillbillies move here.

Might as well leave this planet earth. Everywhere you go there’s gonna be good and bad.

Moving to Branson Missouri.

HOA fees scams? Insurance ? ….. perhaps how they screw up the American Dream for the elderly? …. We know by now what is going on….

BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Why are people complaining about the Heat in Florida. It's supposed to be HOT... What about the dam COLD. Why is nobody complaining about that?!?!

Too expensive in Broward..moving to Mexico!! 🤣🤣

I live in Winter Springs Florida. It’s a small town outside Orlando. “The City Beautiful” Yeah a Beautiful Disaster! I can’t stand it here anymore. I was born and raised in the same area. It has become HORRIBLE! The crime rate is insane. The drugs are everywhere, I mean EVERYWHERE. The people are mean! There is a lot of racism that takes place. If you are looking for a good friend, ha, you will not find one genuine friend in Florida. It gets so hot here that I feel like it has affected the people’s mental and physical wellbeing. When they say it’s going to be 98 degrees, it feels like it’s 110 degrees because of the humidity. It’s HOT here. Everyday. We don’t have a winter. Hurricane season starts in the fall, usually. (Weather is very unpredictable) Summers are like a hibernation for me. lol The homeless rate is getting higher and higher every month. A lot of people just camp out on the sidewalks in front of their old home in which they lost because of either drugs or alcoholism/loss of their jobs due to our economy/mental illnesses… the list goes on. They’re many different people here that I’ve lost my identity. (Ya know when you fill out a form and they ask your nationality or background I don’t even know what to put down… I just want to put down “Floridian”. ) The cost of living is astronomical, so you might as well be a doctor or lawyer to make ends meet to live comfortably in Florida. The land is flat, and it takes a toll on the back after some time. Always road construction and traffic congestion. You can work a huge array of jobs that require your entire 24 hour day to make ends meet and that’s with a few roommates. I see a lot of elderly having to sell their medications. It’s just too hard of life here. If you’re thinking about moving here, I don’t recommend. Just visit and enjoy the beaches or shopping. Because we do have that. It’s just not something for the people who live here. It’s for tourists. They’re is a saying here “Come on vacation, leave on probation” but only you can’t leave on probation because you have to live in the same county as the crime. Just be careful. ❤🙏✌️🌞💫

I say SPURIOUS! I've been in Florida all my life and I see the opposite, the population has doubled and the the cars have tripled. It's because Florida is the last free state and most of the people who have moved here were fleeing blue states. Now that your state has flipped to red, please move back to your real homes.

All the Democrats fleeing from the shit hole cities are bringing their gang banging families to live where people spring break.
The woke fools that sell their over priced condo in San Francisco or New York drive the property value WAY UP.
Insurance companies dont want to insure the overpriced shack that gets blown over in a Hurricane blows it over.

As the good book..The Bible..says…. The LOVE of MONEY….is the ROOT of ALL EVIL.. life on a whole is never all full of fun and sun..so go on pick which hell you want to live in..😂!

Yea. Florida sucks. Overrated tourist trap. Overpriced homes with impossible insurance rates. Dumb people in government. Yep! Left Florida a year ago, never going back.

😮I do not even want to visit. U can have the crap place.

Too many cold loving northeners can't stand the heat.

And Give a Big Fat Thank YOU to Your Governor who has Insurance Companies Best Interests at Heart.

This is just a silly bunch of whiners. If you hate it so much why did you come? Please leave. Go find yourself or whatever. You wont be missed. Bye bye. BTY 3rd fastest growing state in the country so the whole thing is garbage anyway.

So this narrative that it's better to live in a red state is debunked, besides Florida, we have the Bible Belt, redder than a fire truck and the poorest states in the country.

My family has wanted to move there for years, at one point I was actively interviewing... but the salaries were too low

More Lies. People are moving to our county like crazy.

This is wonderful! The more dissatisfied people move, the less traffic congestion that we have here! Florida is not made for wimps and whiners! Take some of your friends with you! I understand the real estate is cheaper in Georgia, the Carolinas, and Tennessee! Enjoy your trip!😊

I used to do the Snow Bird two step too until I learned better and discovered The Philippines- yess it too gets damn Hot, they got 'Bugs' but its cheap and the women are friendly, loyal, kind - even sweet and Luv American's (Which is more than I can say about Gringa's!) I can get-bye much of the time on $3-5- A day/rent under $300- & another $300- Running around! So why kill yourselves fighting traffic, prices and indifferent people caught in an old tired "American Dream" that is Not what it was!

The mosquitos, alligators and humidity have always been a problem in Florida. But the hurricanes are bringing a rising water table, storms make oceans surge inland, tornados are destroying homes a hundred miles away, sargasso seaweed is stinking up beaches, leprosy is climbing, and now on top of all of that, insurance costs are multiplying! My question is, why STAY?

well done👏

Where are the statistics to back this claim Everyone is leaving Florida? Here’s a fact, according to the AP, FL crossed the 23 million people in 2024. It’s the third most populated state. It’s crowded here. Believe that! So this video is clickbait and only giving partial truths. I wish it was true so the roads wouldn’t be so crowded. So yeah, don’t move here please 😅

Florida sucks was there 3 months and left. Too expensive lazy people a lot of rip offs nothing is in your favor and not a good place to be if you own and have to pay HOA etc etc before you move, try one month

😂😂😂😂 florida red voter 🤡💩 next texas 🤣

I suggest all you cry babies move to califoriache and see what it is like to try to buy a house in ca. for $2m that cost $500K in Florida. Also, Florida has no state income tax as does ca. I could go on about crime and homelessness and closed major cities. Go ahead and drive in Ca. and try to purchase gas. No sense in going on. Oh wait! I forgot about the lack of electricity and water...Oh yes! Try buying eggs for less than $8.00. One more thing. Now someone can go in your home in ca. and throw you out. Go ahead move there.

Wow-thinking of buying a home in Sarasota or Naples and maybe in a cooler place for the summer. Thinking twice now.
