i would enjoy living in FLorida because of the beaches, disney world, the farming, and the sports teams. it would be fun because i could go to the Miami Heat basketball games. also i could see the Miami Dolphins play even though their not that good. and i could watch the florida gators college games. i would enjoy Florida because of the beaches too. i would love to live on the beach so i could go swimming or boogy boarding anytime i wanted too. Also i would live there because of Disney World. it would be sweet to go to Disney anytime i wanted too. and i would live there because i would get the fruit fresh everyday.

we learn that florida people mostly speak spanish and 4th largest state by population. they were on the south side during the civil war.the reason there concerd about global warming is because water raise and causes floods and hurricanes could hit them

Most of the Hispanics in Florida are of Cuban descent, most of the Hispanics in Texas are of Mexican descent. Think about it, Cuba is close to Florida and Texas is close to Mexico.

I would like to live in florida because its warm and theres stuff to do. You could go to the beach and go to different amusement parks. There's no snow and it's sunny year round. Here there's not much to do in a small town. Its warm so everyday you could go to the beach,swim,and just be outside... It doesnt snow so you dont have to worry about the cold. You can be outside like its summer all the time. If you lived in florida you would be close to amusement parks like disney world and universal studios.

I would want too live in flordia because it is always warm there and there is so much too do. But there is also things and reasons why i would rather not live in flordia. One of those reasons is there are too many people there, Its at high hurricane risk, And the humidity. But still i think i would probably want too live in flordia. i want too live close too all of the different amusment parks around there like disney.

florida is home to the everglades. florida also houses the horse show capital of the world.Floridas residents are primarily elderly and spanish speaking people.Cubans immigrate to Florida quite often because of how close it is. The span between florida and cuba is only a small 90 miles. This state is a key component in the presidential elections because it has many represenatives. Things that may sway the votes, are the runners promises on medicare and immigration. Florida homes the oldest city in america - St.Augustine. Its also famous for seminole indian tribe and its role in the confedracy. There are occasional weather mishaps, this because of warmer weather causes hurricanes and floods so they have adapted in a proper way.I intend on living in florida one day, i love the weather, people, and neighborhoods. my family has land in Daytona, FL so its very conveint to vist and it makes moving there so much easier. so i would deffinatly enjoy living there.

I would enjoy living in Florida because it's very nice there and I enjoy the warm weather and I don't like the cold at all and I love the beach and there's a whole bunch of things to do down there. Also some of my family lives in Florida and I never get to see them so if I would live down there I would be able to see them more often. But then I wouldn't want to live down there because they get a lot of hurricanes and it never rains there but only in certain months they get hurrincanes so then I would love to live there.

I would enjoy living in Florida because, from going from such a small town it woud just be a grrat experience! Also, its a good place to have fun! Disney World, beaches and the salt water! I love getting to the becah and just smelling the fresh water and the sand and its just a good feeling! I love warm weather also, and usually it is pretty hot down there too! Spanish is pretty fluent down there too so I think it would be cool to learn a new language. Floridas also known for Universal Studios which is in Orlando. That was be awesome to see and explore. I also believe that Florida has one of the oldest citys names, St. Ogastine!

I would enjoy living in florida because you are close to the beaches and they keep them clean by not having off shore drilling.The only reason why i wouldn't like to live there would be because of the hurricanes.Florida has a lot of spanish speaking people they mostly come from cuba.Florida is very important in the presidential because there is a lot of elderly people and hispanic people that live in florida and they are mostly concerned about medicare and jobs.The oldest city in america is St.Agustine discovered by the spanish.Most jobs have to do with farming and agerculture and tourisum.

Using the notes from yesterday and learning more about Florida and their ways, I would enjoy living in Florida. The weather is warm and you always have a beach as your backyard. Yes, there may be severe storms such as hurricanes.. but you have storms everywhere. You can't escape them. There are a lot of Hispanic people there and it would be interesting the learn more about their culture. There is alot of history here also, and things to keep you busy. I would love to live in Florida some day.

Yesterday we learned that that in Florida there is alot of Spanish-speaking individual because it is easy to travel from cuba to Florida cause it is such a small distance. There is also alot of elderly people in Florida. Also Florida has ALOT of electorial votes. It is the forth biggest state by population. It holds the oldest city in America. The Seminole tribe was from Florida and was part of the confederacy during the Civil War. Because of the hot climate there is alot of hurricanes, flooding, and riseing sea levels.There are also alot of tourist attractions because or parks such as Disney world wich is located in Atlanta, Georgia. I think I would love living in florida because the climate is very hot! THE END!:)

I would enjoy living in Florida because it is warm. It doesn't get very cold like it does in PA.There would be a few things I wouldn't like about living there. I dont like how there are a lot of hurricanes in Florida. I also wouldn't like all the spanish talking people because I woundn't be able to understand most of them. It would be cool to go see the things there like Disney World and N.A.S.A. I would also like all the beaches and things in Florida.I could go to Disney World anytime i wanted. The farming is also good there. There would be a lot of food.

I personaly would not want to live in Florida on the fact that they have a really high crime rate and that is were some guy got his face eaten off by some dude. Also it has massive hurrricanes and you would have to go somewhere almost every year to be safe from hurricanes and tornadoes.That is where the most powerful storms comethrough and destroy everything in their path including your home. A plus to living in Florida is the nice beaches and warm year round. So other than getting your face eaten off, getting your $300,000 dollar home getting destroyed and having to evacuate every year atleast once or twice and getting robbed, atleast you can still enjoy not being able to understand spanish people and the nice beaches!!

I would personally not like to live in Florida mainly because of the incredibly hot and humid weather there. Also because some of the Mexicans and Cubans that live there bring illegal drugs into the state which make people get high. Also in order to understand them you have to learn Spanish. Another reason is because that in the hot summer months it is hurricane season and Florida is in a dangerous position on the Earth where sometimes they have to evacuate so they don’t die. Now if you take all of that and add tourists and senior citizens all over the place, Florida doesn’t seem so wonderful anymore.

    Hello, I received my Bachelor's degree in History from Cedarville University in
    Ohio and I taught out of state in West Virginia and Florida for four years.  I
    also worked in telecommunications for 4 years.  My grandfather and great uncle
    went to Saltsburg High School in the 1940's.  My grandfather still talks about
    the 1935 flood!  As a result of that flood the local dams were built to prevent
    flooding.
