What's wrong with Miami? Why do some people hate it?

Well... I lived there for four years while going to UM... and I used to love it, but I can't really stand it anymore. It's just way too busy for me. Too many terrible drivers, rush hour at all hours, store employees who don't speak English... But I absolutely love Fort Lauderdale (where I live now), which is just a little bit north. It's far less hectic.

Miami, and most of Florida, just grosses me out. Miami is way too liberal/urban/ghetto for me. Many areas in Florida just remind me of the Jersey shore, and I could never live there.

Miami-Dade county has vastly different areas... yes, some are urban/ghetto, but some are very conservative as well... along with everything in-between. It all depends on where you go. What areas of Miami are you referring to??

I dont really know. My visits to Miami have been fairly limited. I'm sure it has nice areas, but even those I doubt are my style. Mostly, Florida is just a little too pop culture for my tastes. Now West Palm is more my style, and maybe something on the panhandle. However, I'd have a tough time telling people I'm from Florida with a straight face.

Providence, Rhode Island
Danbury, Connecticut
New Haven, Connecticut
Madison, Wisconsin

Man, I have alot of Wisconsin and Connecticut locations. Wisconsin's ok, they just don't like Chicago drivers and I am definitely a Chicago driver.

Places I am surprised:
Bend, Oregon
Medford, Oregon
Portland, Oregon
Carson City, Nevada

Do you think Wisconsin and Connecticut have some kind of deal with this site? Almost all of mine were from one or the other. Throw in a little Washington DC for randomness and that's my list.
