can someone tell me what kind of city it is? I know I don't have to worry about SEC football there, I know I will be outnumbered by the Gator fans, but how livable is the city? Anyone have any idea?
Never have spent much time in the area, so curious.

You know I think you're going to just have to get another job, I mean there's literally no real estate for sale down here at all and all of the stuff for rent is taken by students.


Oh and don't listen to Kige, he's just pissed because he used to live here but had to move...we didn't have a homosexual community large enough for his appetite.

Not true at all, just go outside the city limits to the north and the west.

It's not so bad.

It's your typical Florida mid-sized city with a campus thrown in.

If that's what you like, then you're in luck.

I personally enjoy Gainesville anytime I go. Now, there is a difference in going for a football weekend and living there permanently, but I think you'll enjoy it. Just gel your hair and buy some jorts and you'll make friends in a hurry.

I've lived in Gainesville for a pretty long time now. Yeah, there's a shitload of Gator fans, and yeah, they're insufferable right now because they're so damn good, but I have a blast here. It's still small enough with plenty to do inside the city limits...thanks to UF, I guess. The Atlantic is an hour to the east, the Gulf is about an hour to the west. If you get bored here, Jax is an hour to the northeast, Orlando and Tampa are a couple of hours south. Homes can be had for the low 100's, median and nicer homes are in the low 200's and up to 1M.

Folks around here know I'm a Gump. I've never had any problems. You'll like it.

It's probably the worst time ever to consider moving to Florida. The economy is about to tank hard, and Gov. Crist is doing everything he can to get out of office before it does.

I would recommend you look elsewhere, if possible.

Why is it people always bring up Obama in threads that have nothing to do with him.

And before yall jump on me, I'm not a Democrat, or a Republican. Almost all politicians are lying bastards. However, bringing up Obama in random threads is retarded.

Maybe I've spent to much time reading Gump and Vol boards for fun but people do that crap all the time, and they're dead serious about it. Just gets annoying after a while.
