I’m from Atlanta currently in the PNW, and I meet folks every now and then that say they want to move to Texas or Florida or wherever because of the property prices and what not. I keep telling them the culture is just not the same. Not bad or good just that many things they appreciates and expect about where they live will not be there. I myself had to get used to the big differences in the food scenes, shopping, no A/C in most residential buildings, and how to meet people and make friends.

I’m happy with my choice overall but many folks just don’t do their due diligence when relocating.
