What's it REALLY like to live in a town know for BEACHES, PARTIES and sadly the REAL essence of the town is being stripped away by new waves out outsiders failing to see the REAL DEAL of this beach town know worldwide for its clear water beaches and nightlife and party? Well, its NOT the Fort Lauderdale of times past.

Moved to Ft Lauderdale Fl in 1997 from Long Island NY and lived in Ft Lauderdale for nineteen years. I’m in Delray Beach now but can’t wait until the day that I can move back to Ft Lauderdale. It was the most fun I’ve ever had in my life.

Lived here all my life. yes I can't afford it. Rent is. Totally unaffordable. Yet !! If you went down town you see city life. How do they afford it? Oops theres Lauderdale by the sea. They want working class to go away. Beaches are for condo owners !! All others get lost !! Like your not from here opinion. I have figured out how to live here and not pay !! Be honest the city is full up. Traffic sucks. You didn't mention the county bus, guy shot a bunch of people and bus driver crashed into ft Lauderdale police station

Opinionated comment. Paying for parking via apps is everywhere, even where I am. My personal opinion is its another way to widen the gap between social classes. If you own/rent/borrow a car and want to park it you must also have a working mobile device and at minimum a visa debt card from a bank.

I lived in ft. Lauderdale from 1990 to 2009. the problem of entitlement is off the charts! everybody thinks their better than the next person. But, I have a surprise for you all, it's not just in florida . I live in Vegas now and it's not any different here! By the way, I never was out work until 2009 when construction died, so I left.

retiring on 250k, you better already "own" your house, and a cheap house at that.... look on zillow for houses/etc. oh, 250k in 2 years will be worth about 100k

Just got back from Miami so not to far from Fort lauderdale so I will say this. It was an absolutely amazing time however it has many negatives. It is outrageously expensive to live there, traffic is insane, and the people there are extremely rude. Good place to visit but unless your a millionaire forget about it

Appreciate your content man!........at 18:11.....I've been looking for a new affordable, diverse city with a decent job market. I came from new york and live in DMV area now....Its interesting because ATL checks off all requirements for me except for diversity. I'm Black/Caribbean and to me it seems like ATL is mostly Black and White American (not saying that the people aren't cool though) and like you said diversity significantly decreases as soon as you get out of ATL surrounding area ....Florida seems like its perfect if you can get over the job issue. I'm looking at Houston too....I guess I could do Florida as long as I lock down a remote IT job, stock investing and selling beats (side hustles) ....or ATL with trips to Florida since its a quick flight.......not sure. I'm still figuring it out

Spent much time in Chicago & Ft. Lauderdale. I think what Larry S means comparing Ft. Lauderdale to Chicago lousy traffic with toll booths & draw bridges. Also lots of people, especially in height of winter combining tourists with residents they’re approximately 5,000,000 crammed in Broward County’s limits. Chicago’s summer crowds are like Ft. Lauderdale’s winter crowds. And greater Ft. Lauderdale combined with Miami does rub shoulders with the Chicago rat race. But compare Ft. Lauderdale & Chicago downtown sizes in building sizes & skyscrapers? Nope.
