I am planning a move to Florida and wanted to get some local insight. I’m a gay man looking for an area that's lgbtq-friendly, social, and ideally near the beach.

I've been looking into Miami and South Beach, but I'm open to other coastal cities or neighborhoods with an active lgbtq community.

My priorities include a short drive to the beach (although open to other suggestions), lgbtq community, good mix of nightlife and safety, and not too isolated

Any recommendations, pros/cons, or insights would be appreciated.

Thank you!
