Florida's housing market was once red-hot. Now it's one of the coldest in the country.

6. Numerous issues in Florida...

Climate change means stronger and more frequent hurricanes, flooding in low lying areas (which include all of south Florida), and tropical diseases. Also, no political will to protect the state's fragile ecosystems from exploitation and pollution.

The state is currently run by extreme reactionary right wing morons. Not just the governor but also the state legislature, head of HHS, etc. The healthcare system is quickly being overwhelmed by an aging and/or impoverished population, health care professionals fleeing the ridiculous red state laws, and the dismantling and profitizing of Medicaid and Medicare. FL literally hides and misrepresents health data and their many LTC facilities are poorly regulated.

Public education is badly underfunded and ridiculous MAGA laws ban books and meddle in the classroom. Public universities have been under sustained right-wing attack for over a decade now. Educators are fleeing the state.

It's really a shame. It's a beautiful state with amazing natural resources. Miami was the one of our nation's most beautiful cities. Florida was a Democratic stronghold.
