I've been living in Tampa Bay for exactly 17 months (from Hawaii). The only reason I moved was because of a job promotion. The cost of living here is so much lower than in Honolulu so my income goes a long way.

I can't see myself living here forever though. The summer is unbearable, the place is not as diverse as NYC, I'm deprived of Filipino restaurants, and the closest family is in TX and NY.

Thanks.

I think you would have gained some insights from people who did live in Florida and reasons why they left.

Depends on what you are into -- Hernando County is way far from Tampa and is more "country-like" and Hillsborough County has it's own city, and it's own country, suburbs, etc.
