Can we move that line a little further south??? Maybe to Tampa?
Having a been born and raised a Florida girl, I can honestly say there are three different parts of the great State of Florida, South, Mid, and North.
I would say South Florida would stop in the middle of the state south of the Polk County line. Tampa Bay, Orlando, and Daytona are very much their own mid-state culture.
North Florida would be Ocala northward. Having gone to school in Jacksonville, I can honestly say it is more like Southern Georgia than Florida.
I am vaguely remembering from my Florida history class that West Florida used to be its own country/ republic that stretched from Tallahassee to Mobile during the 1700s....
