Why is Florida so much cheaper than California? Aren't they pretty much similar states?
>>
>>29335233
There's a lot more demand for real estate in CA. There's a very low real estate tax so wealthy people have gobbled up most of the land and now what's left is really expensive, also many old people don't want to sell. On top of that cities like San Francisco have very stupid ordinance policies which prevent cheap housing from being built. You can find places in the valley and in Norcal that are cheap but they are far from civilization and are full of latinos and meth addicts.
>>
>>29335233
Florida is the garbage can of america. It was developed on a swamp so the buildings are trash, miami was built with drug money and is full of shitskins, everyone is either retired or inbred trailer trash, and there is no industry.

California at least has several booming industries and a variety of livable climates.
>>
>>29335287
Not to mention California is just a better place to be. Not too much to do in Florida. Just suburban area after another with little life and culture.
>>
California has silicon valley and los angeles. I don't know what Florida has besides retirement homes, college kids during spring break and 0% state income tax
>>
>>29335233
Not really. Different climate zone, completely different geography, different cultural region. They are similar in that they both have a lot of coastline and some hispanic influence. That's about where the similarities end.

no, part of it could be considered Mediterranean but most of it is desert and scrub
>>
>>29335349
California is the almost the opposite of tropical. It's very dry here. Most of California is not on the coast and most of the coastal areas are not beaches/swamps like Florida.
>>
>>29335349
Florida has a humid tropical climate, California has that dry desert climate. Similar on paper but not really when you look at it.

fucking this. I live there and there and it has gotten worse. Wetbacks with 5 kids running around the store screaming. It was nicer 15 years ago, now killings have gone up and meth addicts are everywhere stealing. The valley is just a farm for democrat voters. Its a very sad thing to see progress.

Nigga you must be trolling
Popular, yes, but not as insane as it is now, I could go down and pick up some tacos for a party and I'd only have to wait like 5-10 minutes in line on a saturday and then 5-10 to get the damn tacos

Now it's minimum 20-30 in line alone, easily 20 to get the same amount of food
>>
>>29335660
That's not GDP though,....
>>
>>29335660
this list is more of overall rating of the quality of random factors the author chose willy nilly rather than the size of the economy. which was the original comment.
>>
>>29335641
For such a small state, NJ is fucking up there
>>
>>29335736
The original comment was "largest economy"
now people are mentioning GDP if it's the only important aspect of an economy
>>
>>29335693
nope not trolling my grandma made all of the recipes you know that other mexican place on the same street that's where the original Titos tacos was they moved it
>>
>>29335782
regarding the size its the most indicative. texas gsp is growing at a faster rate than california's if that helps salve your anus though faggot.
>>
>>29335782
It gives you the best sense of the overall size of an economy. The other article uses a more holistic approach to determine the quality of the economy. Washington is smaller but had a higher percentage growth, higher average wages and lower unemployment than the national average so it was number 1.
>>

So they can't afford to keep prices the same but yet they can afford to take out a fuckton of ad time on ABC7 and on radio (atleast, that's where I see/hear the ads) when they do insane business and have word-of-mouth/free online popularity? Shit business strategy honestly.

California has a lot more taxes as it is dominated heavily by leftist democrats. The cost of business is high, so prices are higher on goods and services, it costs more to build and create, so workers need to be paid better, but that costs businesses even more, so they hire few people if they even open shop at all, and so on.

California has a fairly low property tax rate, Texas' property tax rate is twice as high. This was caused by the Howard Jarvis Foundation which is a conservative anti-tax group who fucked the state income and forced us to tax people's success through income and sales tax. I'm not a liberal but the shit conservatives have done to my state is just as destructive.
>>
>>29336131
This. All the sun and fun of cali, cheap taxes and cheap cost of living. Not too many liberals and most places still have a "good ol boy" mentality. Niggers know their place and it's a haven for guns and outdoor hobbies.
>>
>>29335233
Florida is humid, california is dry heat.

Dry heat is always better to live in. Humidity makes the cold colder and the hot hotter.

That and California is more liberal and progressive, while Florida is mixed republican and democrat and has an older theme to it.

California ism ore beautiful too, better beaches better mountains, prime growing regions for a bunch of agriculture more so than florida. Florida is mostly swampland know for things like crocodiles.

Ive lived all over California and have visited and stayed in florida a lot too.
>>
>>29336355

Anywhere by the beach in florida is just as expensive as california though, its not cheap at all.

>>29336482

I agree with all of this except beaches, IMO florida has nicer beaches. I like the tropical beaches better that's just me.
>>
>>29336329
there seems to be a tendency towards neoliberal centrism (they call themselves democrats and republicans like the rest but you can tell by how much they love the word 'growth') in big states with single-party systems. CA and TX are prime examples: you'd think they'd be the most liberal and conservative states in the country, but they have a lot in common: both have carefully balanced budgets, tons of tax breaks for wealthy people and key industries, sprawling government bureaucracies, and lax enforcement on illegal immigration.
>>
>>29336536
You're never more than an hour from the beach in Florida so it doesn't matter. Only snowbirds who can't into hurricanes live right on the beach.

Lol only a few years ago California was the 5th highest GDP in the world on its own

Now its like number 9 though but youre a fool to believe California isnt an economic powerhouse. 4 years ago you poltards were saying California is doomed and going to bankrupt and we moved a few things around and now have a tax surplus LOL

Dont beleive everything you read on /pol.. theyre actually a bunch of idiots and irrational.
>>

>>29336482
Florida has better beaches IMO and the Florida keys are the most beautiful place you'll probably ever see, fan boats through the everglades was fun as fuck.

Humidity is better for your skin and sinus than dry weather btw.

They both have their pros and cons i guess
but Florida is better just because it has most of what California has but cheaper and not overly developed (in the good secret spots) and guns are fun.
>>
>>29336626

Orlando is in the middle of the state, no beaches but can still be expensive. Tampa is a small city but it can still be extremely expensive to live close to the beach.

You don't have the tech industry and 9001 chinks raising real estate prices with their ill-gotten cash.

it's a nice economy to look at but for the working man it's kind of shit: too expensive to live in the cities where all the jobs are, terrible infrastructure and no jobs in less populated areas. You're right though, anyone who thinks we're circling the drain or that any industries will move to states with lower nominal tax rates are completely wrong.
>>

Humidity is better for your sinus than dry weather btw

i can agree with everything you said except this, humidity is murder on labored breathing/troublesome sinus. fuck humidity

People like this are another reason why California is better than Florida.

Racism is rare in California and everybody more or less gets along.

Florida wasnt even racist when I went but you can get the feel in certain veins of it where there are rednecks from the south vacationing or youre in somewhere super rural.


My school was literally like pic related and my best friends were Pakistani, White, and Black. It was really cool seeing all their different families and having different expeiences.

Relative to commiefornia, Tampa and Orlando are cheap but a studio shithole in a Tampa ghetto can be a fucking grand a month. Mot people work in Tampa and live in a country town like Brooksville, where I live and pay $500 for a 2br2ba apt with not a single nig in sight. Work in Tampa making $20/hr. It's great.

>>
>>29336695
>, terrible infrastructure and no jobs in less populated areas.

What Calidornia is all open roads in the rural area. Miles and miles of quality well maintained road. In the Urban areas of major cities the roads are worse because theres so much traffic and heavy vehicles. But in the suburbs and roads connecting cities theyre always well maintained. Driving around California is pretty amazing especially the Pacific Coast Highway.

>it's a nice economy to look at but for the working man it's kind of shit: too expensive to live in the cities where all the jobs are,

True. I was so used to paying a high rent I was surprised the first time i heard of it being so low while visiting different states. Theres a lot of good affordable housing though as long as you dont want to live in the middle of San Fran, Hollywood, San Diego and so on.
