Auston, what is it about your blog that it won't pinch-zoom on my iPad in either Chrome or Safari? Is there an HTML5 directive that can turn off pinch-zoom? I tried "request desktop site" but it didn't make any difference. It resizes fine on desktop Chrome.
Regarding Florida... a vast, beautiful and diverse region with massive immigration that has propelled it to #4 in population (and closing in on #3 New York). I fell in love with the place when my family visited cousins in Ft. Lauderdale.
Interesting to read about Silicon Valley and SF versus New York versus Miami and other urban centers. I wonder whether it's still advantageous in this day and age to spend the extra bucks and be in a hotspot of entrepreneurial activity. The online networking forums dwarf the old computer clubs and networking gatherings of yore. Granted, there's still nothing like face to face for getting "chemistry" about someone, but is it worth spending an extra $200,000 for a house and an extra $25,000 a year in taxes? (actually these numbers are probably understated, depending on where you are)
Your blog describes the lifestyle preferences of a young, single person. Having a family changes everything and suddenly schools and stability of neighborhoods become much more important than diversity of cuisine (and once you have a kid, your restaurant fund is diverted to diapers anyway). From that perspective, I would think that southern Florida wins hands down over, say, San Francisco or Manhattan which are prohibitively expensive for raising families. I mean, people do it, but damn. It's not like when my mother was growing up in Brooklyn in the 1930s and 40s and millions of families lived in the City, and millions of families bought modest homes all up and down the California coast. And Miami was a quiet city you went for two weeks in the wintertime.
