People thinking that all of us are like those worthless Jersey Shore dirtbags.
^^^ This
And INSANE property taxes!0 -
I would say nothing - I love living where I do! We have mountains, beautiful wildlife, rivers, no traffic, a decent-sized town within a 20 minute drive, affordable housing, low taxes, low crime, good jobs in the area, 4 distinct seasons, friendly people, great locally farmed food, awesome non-chain restaurants, lots of vineyards. I could go on and on!
The only thing I can think of is that sometimes (like now), the summers are TOO HOT!0 -
It seems like the people around here are in a constant competition to see who can take the most far-right fringy ultra-conservative position in life....and then insist that the rest of us blindly follow them or else endure the social-equivalent of burning crosses on our front lawns.
I can count on one hand the number of restaurants in this area that are NOT chains.
Intelligence, science and knowledge/appreciation of things outside this county are openly mocked, feared, and denigrated....there is an appalling glorification of the mediocre, of blind faith, and of willful ignorance here.
Hubby has apologized over and over for moving us here in the first place. We can't wait to get the eff out.0 -
Orlando, FL
The fact that everyone thinks you live right next to Disney. (Disney is in Kissimmee, not Orlando)
Tourists
I-4
The drivers. I have driven through 20+ states and yes, there are bad drivers everywhere, but I swear, it's an epidemic in Orlando. And I'm not talking about the tourists who don't know where they're going. I'm talking natives.
Giant fricken cockroaches that fly.
The summer sucks.0 -

Where do you live? sounds IDEAL......except I would definitely miss the beach0 -
my parents live there, too.0

other than really dumb people teach in our school systems...just the trash on the side of the road. really people, if your mouth hangs open, you shouldn't be a teacher and it's not hard to just wait until you find a trashcan.
ouch. I can never run for office of any kind after that. oops.0 -
I can't just drive beach every day.:noway:0
-
I'd live there in a heartbeat.0
-
The small minds. :frown:
and everything is dead. I am used to living in a beautiful green place. Everything here dies as soon as summer hits and then stays dead except for a few weeks of Spring. :sad:0 -
Indiana. 'Nuff said.0
-
Things cost 150% more because I live on an island and crane flies.0

The summers are hot as hell and the winter weather is truly unpredictable. We never have just rain it is always a thunderstorm. Everything south of Dallas is ghetto or half way there (and I live south of Dallas :-/). Oh and it is not my wonderful homestate of California!0
-
Ungodly hot summers, crazy winters and the scenery is corn fields.0
-
I'm a liberal bisexual atheist female living in Kansas. This is a beautiful state with some fantastic human beings in it and an insanely low cost of living, but it's also Kansas.
edit: reading through the rest of these replies (including/especially my own) i have to say... First World Problems. This site itself is a response to a first world problem, but still... feh.0 -
The fact that we only have two seasons... Winter and Construction
This!0 -
Everything...it's Jersey...sorry.
P.s. I love Ohio!
But, I guess it is a,"grass is always greener," mentality.
Its gotta be.
There are so many things to do in Cincinnati, and its a great city. I mostly hate the climate. I can't stand the winters. Hate them. And I'd like to live closer to the city.0 -
Nothing ever changes,,, it always seems the same,,, the divide between the well off and the poor is staggering and Definate.... and if you dont live n the right side of the tracks your crap0
-
No yard for my pups to run in
New bakery that just opened a block away. Damn bakery smells!!! Croissants and sweet breads, damn!0 -
It's a 3rd floor apartment. So really it's a blessing because I work out everytime I come home but having a beautiful wife and 2 babies makes her life a living hell. I need to some how make a pully system for the kids so that she can venture out by herself while I am at work.0
