Man thats funny... i wish i could live in Canada! People are sooo much nicer up there, and everything costs less (for us anyway)....
I guess I would say Ft. Lauderdale, b/c you are a stone's throw away from Miami (like 30-45 min. drive) and all the South Beach clubs, but you are in the nicer part of South Florida. You are also next to Boca Raton, the really nice neighborhood, and North of you are the Palm Beaches, where all the HUGE money is and some more great clubs (Clematis St.)
You have the biggest outlet mall in the USA here in Ft. Lauderdale (Sawgrass Mills), you have every friggin' store imaginable, ridiculous nightlife. (Ft. Laud. has like 6 different nighttime districts with clubs, restaurants, bars, etc...)
Also, Ft. Laud has a huge downtown, (larger than most states' capital cities....), so if you want that "skyscraper-city look", we have that. We also have excellent beaches (i live like 4 blocks from the beach)... and Ft. Laud. is called "The Venice of America" because we have canals throughout the entire city.... and a lot of drawbridges, but they are cool....
Anyway, i'm not too knowledgeable about all the other cities in Florida, but i'm giving ya my take on Ft. Lauderdale.
good luck

Jacksonville is the place for you if u like Nascar, Football, and Beer
Other then that ....... we got beaches, thats about it. And as far as the club scene goes. We get a big dj like every 6 months if that...
stay in central florida like ABT said, trust me! |

well.. sorry but i hate ft. lauderdale... it is becoming so ghetto full of constructions everywhere.. its just another miami downtown...all the clubs are always closing down..theres never anything new to do...
i like AVENTURA... which is between miami and ft. lauderdale.. it ;'s like boca raton but the city is more busy there are more things to do there...but at the same time all the neighborhoods are really nice and clean...
anywhere in palm beach county is cool too...
i like boca.. but everyone who lives there are stuck up.. xoxo Ur Dream Grl |

Hey Delstar..Im from Coral Springs which is a lil bit NW of Ft.lauderdale and it is right before Boca Raton.. i love my city.. it is very calm.. there s a lot of things to do (no clubs though)...AND it is the 8th best city to live in the US.. heheheh(well that was back in 99) hehe.. but i still like it..
the only problem here is that the people here have horrible taste in cars.. but oh well..
glad u coming to the us.. let us know ecxactly when u are planning to come we'll be happy to show you around town before you make ur decision and im sure you will have fun...:p
xoxo Ur Dream Grl

| why on earth would u wanna live in canada? personally, the only nice city with good partying and good looking people is montreal. Toronto stinks in my opinion and ottawa is boring but vancouver is supposed to be awesome. I love florida and love their people (visited 5 times) I like orlando but id like to be closer to the beaches and miami is too "slummy" now. i might come to visit florida in early december...maybe i'll visit coral springs to check out the scene and the companies :) |

I want to go back to floridaaaaaaaaa but I want to go to canada too ,'because everyone is been talking so good about it lately.
Hey Delstar , if you get to meet faye,that is going to be great! :) she is the coolest girl you could ever meet, i just met her when i was there last month with my sister, not to mention she was a great hostess to us,I went to Coral Springs, I liked it, it was a very clean city, but didnt stay there, we stayed in Cocoa Beach and naples which is on the west coast of Florida and it is so boring there,lol,
so whatever you do, stay on the East side, :)
Ok..
