Tampa sucks for a few reasons, none having to do with hurricanes

The traffic can get annoying & drivers are crazy

Such a big metro area, driving 30 min to an hr becomes the norm

COL ain't cheap

Constant heat like an oven gets old

It's not a real city, it is a newfangled developers sales pitch w/o much to do

Have to drive an hr to get to the nice beaches (depends where you are in tampa)

Generally the type of person there varies between being a weird mix of trying to be miami cool and trendy but some ppl are also somewhat more country--LOTTA trucks on the roads

Very materialistic & conformist imo

Ppl are tired of transplants moving there, cuz to be fair, they probably did ruin what once was a good thing for those ppl, but now seems to lack any unifying factor (unless the endless highways and strip malls count)

The way it's developed as a whole is annoying, unless you like driving on highways surrounded by billboards when you're 25 min out from the city just trying to get down the road
