Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I know someone will no doubt call this clickbait as they always so when someone posts a link, but I found this interesting enough to share.
Florida was particular interesting for me as we would not choose Jax or the Villages as our first choice. Jax being too big for us, and the villages being too far inland. YMMV. I also was surprised at the choice for Hawaii.
Jax is one of the largest cities in Florida and has a crime rate to back it up, it is also very crowded. However, it does have an abundance of services and one can get pretty much anything they want there. We live about an hour out of Jax and while it is nice to have a big city close, it is almost too close and we have been looking to move further out, but we have great access to healthcare and services, which keeps us put for now.
I am sure folks from other states will find it intriguing too, and may like to comment on the choices for their states.
