Originally posted by AMMORA So i've spent the past year in Cleveland, Ohio b/c of work...they sent me out here to do a job, which i did, very well, and i've earned the right to tell them where i want to move next. i've narrowed it down to the atlantic coast side of florida. so some questions i have for anyone who may be nice enough to answer- Only city i've ever spent any time in is Miami/South Beach and that was during WMC, so i know its totally an unrealistic view...and i know not all towns are like that along the coast. 1) What are the average costs of apartments? 2) what are the best towns to live in if you're 25, single, and vegetarian (whole foods is NECESSARY!)? 3) Where are places to completely AVOID if you don't wanna get robbed or live in totally shitty conditions (not to be taken as "snobby" but i'm used to clean quiet neighborhoods in white suburbia--call it a comfort thing i guess, but i just wanna know i can park my car and not have to worry about it being broken into/stolen etc and have a clean fairly quiet apartment/condo) 4) what is West Palm Beach like? SERIOUSLY, what is it like? any additional info anyone has...best nightlife, best beaches, etc greatly appreciated.

Broward would be my suggestion as far as north goes. Palm Beach is waaaaayyy to quite IMO. In any case in Broward maybe close to the beaches??

I'll let the other folks answer.

I would say it's the same for both if not more in boca as in locally everyone in Ft.Lauderdale would prefer Towncenter to going all the way to Miami.

Oh and there is tons of nice places in boca that are cheap my friend just moved into a nice 2 floor townhouse for 1750 a month it's a nice neighborhood too.
