Arizona or Florida?

Well Im starting at USF in August. Will be living in Campus Lodge with a couple friends. Around here in Florida, we have probably one of the biggest, if not the biggest audio scene in the country. There are some months where there will be 6 dB Drag/IASCA shows within 3 hours of where you live.

Ive always lived in Florida and I love it here. The audio scene is rediculous... When you live out here and see all these crazy loud cars all the time you just get some little voice in your head that makes you want to build bigger and bigger.

Anyways, I like Florida and dont plan on leaving any time soon. New Port Richey (where I live) sucks ***, but Tampa is like 35 minutes away and EVERYTHING is within 5-25 minutes of Tampa. Clearwater Beach, Busch Gargens, St Pete Times Forum, Ybor City, more night clubs than you could ever imagine, airport, Channelside, etc.

Tampas crime isnt that bad, depending on the area. Of course the ghetto is bad, but what city isnt like that?

I would say Phoenix, the closest I have been to there is Vegas, but the two are almost the same weather wise. You can get used to the heat after a while, plus there are a ton of hot bishes who put out, man I want to go there:crap:

Phoenix FTW

Yes. Originally opened as Busch Gardens, the name was changed in April, 2008 to Busch Gargens. They decided to market the park to a different demographic.

Lived in Floriduh for 6 months and hated it so much, I moved back to Ohio. That should tell you something, lol!

Have family in Tempe and loved it over there. Close to a lot of things and some main attractions are only a few hours away. Hot yes, but dry heat I can put up with. The humidity in Florida was much worse than Ohio and I hate the humidity in Ohio.

There are some days when its 90-110 (hotter on the blacktop) with 90% humidity... Thats pretty raw.

I enjoy living in the Tampa area. There is plenty to do down here and the weather is usually nice. I didn't care for L.A. so that isn't a perk, however being near LV is a big plus. If I lived that close to LV, I would have less time to post.

I couldn't give you a non-baised choice being that I have never lived or been to AZ. All I can say is there is plenty to do in Tampa: Beach, Clubs, events of all sorts, and plenty of hot b!tches in case your deal doesn't work out. We also have a Hard Rock that will soon have blackjack so you can gamble too. A ton of lakes in case you don't want to go to the beach and want to ski an what not. A down side is the humidity but you ge use to it. GL with your descision either place would be better then the midwest.

Ok I lived in Tucson for 10 years and I have to say move to phoenix. Everything a man could want is there, 2 large sports centered university's(drunk college bishes), vegas a few hours a way, san diego and LA just a few hours away, seriously yea its hot during the summer but you dont sweat. From living in both Tallahassee and Tucson, I would take Tucson. Infact I remember many days in Tallahassee that were more unbearable than Tucson due to the humidity, it makes shit 100% worse.

Yeah, I can't stand humidity.

Az. why? Vegas

Something tells me Vegas is pretty expensive. The combination of expensive housing and gambling doesn't really go together too well //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Yeah I feel like Indiana humidity is pretty bad sometimes, I can't imagine Tampa on a hot day.
