Thanks, Finsternis!

I might miss hills as well, but I'm not sure it's a deal-breaker for me. I lived in the mountains out West for a few years and wasn't really into that.

The hurricanes do make me pause some - esp since I've never experienced them. Have you had to evacuate? I've been through some close-ish tornadoes, but really that's only a few hours versus days!

I've been to a few areas in Florida over the years, most recently spending vacations in the panhandle/gulf coast, and the culture there seems pretty different from the south Fl culture.

I've heard that this area of S Fl is very urban culture-wise. I've only ever lived in small or medium cities and so wonder if it'll be culture shock to be in a really urban type area.

Thanks for the info.
