I vacationed in California once and never want to go back. I lived in Florida 5 years and vacationed there 10 times and in 2 years will retire there. I’m happy for you escaping California.

Welcome to Florida! I have lived in Florida my whole life, and I agree with you completely when you say one thing you don't do is try to change the place you move to like the place you came from. I see that happening with a lot of people moving to Florida and as a Floridian I hate it! There was a reason you moved here. Remember that reason(s). Congratulations on your move and nice video! You did a great job!

I moved to The Villages Florida - I used to live in California and Edmonds WA (near Seattle). I am thrilled to have escaped the WOKE Left coast and moved to NORMAL land!!

Thank you for this video! I’m from San Joaquin County right next to where you came from in Cali. Looking to move to Orlando this spring and am both scared and thrilled! Like you said; I prayed and prayed about it and God opened doors I couldn’t have imagined. Glad to hear from someone who is like minded and has made the move.

Ive lived here in Pensacola Florida for about 20 years now and i still have those moments where im like wow i live in Florida ❤

Welcome! I'm a st Petersburg Florida native. Lived here all my 46 years. I hope you and your family continue to be happy here!

Thank you for sharing! We are in the early stages of looking into moving to the Orlando area! We moved from Southern California to Colorado and now looking to move even farther across the county! Love hearing the updates from others who have already made the move, especially with kids.

Our family of 8 took the leap in fall of 2021. Everything is new and different. We're still getting a lay of the land but so thankful to God for leading us here.

Thank you for this video!! I needed to hear this

I would like to see a video of how God open your family doors your testimony I love to hear those stories we moving soon and we are a family of 6 I’m originally from Miami but had moved to Louisiana and now moving back.

Really enjoyed your video. I can relate to your video.

I Love Florida I am currently a Michigander but am planing to move to Florida you are right Floridians are crazy welcoming laid back just beautiful people

I moved to FL from NJ in 1986 for the weather. My parents had moved down from IN after I graduated college there, three years later I joined them after another winter of frozen car door locks, cars not starting and feet freezing. I drove down in Sept during a torrential rain storm, which did not phase me in the least. I flee to family when I have to evacuate St Pete but I love it here. I think it's gotten hotter as I've gotten older but I now work in my native garden instead of an office so I doubt it's so much hotter but storms and the need to evacuate sure has increased!

Thanks for your video. I appreciate the time you took to film this. We are leaving for Orlando this weekend and are going to check out winter garden, Lake Noni, Maitland. We are from the Bay Area and we are retired, looking for a good church, we worship presently at a Calvary Chapel😊.

Well, said. Blessings!

Welcome to Florida! I have been here almost my whole life and have no plans of ever moving outside Florida. One of the great things about our state is how well the state is run. That has a huge impact on your family and quality of life.

One cool thing about Florida is that it's the only state on the east coast where you can watch a sunset at the beach, and they are really beautiul.

Welcome to florida, I'm paula from Luxembourg, I will move to florida soon! I watch your vidéos for 2 reasons 1 discover florida with you 2 learning English thank you

I love it in FL !

I hope you vote for GOP candidates. The worst think is a Californian move to Florida and vote for the same party that’s destroy CA.

What do you guys do for work?

We are making the move at the end of the year from central California your videos helped thanks

Moving to Florida from California too... I can't wait..

Heyyy! Just found you because I’m researching moving to FL. Here’s my thing.. I’m in IL and my daughter is autistic. I have heard negative things about the public schools in FL dealing with autism. But every time we go we LOVE IT down there so I’m really just going back and forth with “should I or should I not”

I’m in Vegas and been trying to get to Florida since my daughter was on 7th grade🫤she’s a senior now and is moving to Baltimore to go to college full ride scholarship. Now I’m here in Vegas and ready to go now. However, I’m not sure about that governor there and I know all the ppl that has moved from there has nothing nice to say about Florida 😐but I’m saying it CANT BE as bad as Las Vegas. So for 2025 I’m really looking to be there because I’m so SICK of Las Vegas and I LOVE the beaches there. I’ve visited different parts of Florida and love every area so far, but would move outside of Orlando. Thank you for this video❤church is something I’m definitely worried about because I have a mentor at church and I hope to find another church as such in Florida. However I can always watch it online when I do leave Las Vegas.

I love California but sadly the government has run it down to where the people have to pay for it. But it is hard when so many people move from CA to TX because by having so many move to Austin it has sky rocketed the housing market and it has totally changed the vibe of Austin. Which is now spreading out to the smaller towns. But people are always moving away to and from. If it wasn’t so crazy expensive I would move to CA San Luis Obispo or Orange County

I love how you covered if you are from blah then blah and also if you are in Florida and speaking to or about people from blah. Just don’t. Both ways needs to show kindness From my understanding ~ there is a very high percentage of transplants compared to ones that was born there … And I WILL BE A TRANSPLANT

The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

I’m thinking of moving but worried about the insurance problem and the heat…. And hurricanes.

Glad you like Florida I particularly Don’t. Moved here a year ago and can’t believe how hot it is in the summer. You literally have to stay indoors for three months. It’s so freaking hot. You can’t even enjoy your pools. The temperature in the pool is 90° plus and if you go to the beach, it’s the same. The beach water is 90° plus. The cost is no bargain anymore my property taxes have doubled in one year and my insurance company wants to cancel me and I’ve never had a claim. It cost four times more than when I lived in Connecticut! Don’t get me started on the politics of banning books and taking away a woman’s rights to her body and the bugs are ridiculous. You have to have an exterminator not just for inside of the house but also for your ornamentals outside. Also well water is undrinkable so had to get a complete house reverse osmosis water system. I’ll be moving back by next year. The insurance keeps doubling and don’t want to self insure as some people do but that’s like playing Russian roulette with your life’s savings

They are not trying to change anything… they are just comparing what they were used to to their new home state of Florida…. What’s the big deal?

I love CA , FL has turned into a one party fascist dictatorship under DeSatan. I am native Floridian that has lived in CA Monterey and I wish I never would have left. I was just there 3 weeks ago and it is still beautiful. FL has become a sewer.

Orlando is trash
