hibiscus are great for Florida i live in Tennessee and i have one that i keep out in the spring and summer and bring in when it starts gettin really cold...they are gorgeous and in Florida u shouldnt have to bring it in at all...they are like the hiwaiian flowers that u see everywhere...oh and they dont require a lot of work...just basically water at least twice a week and remember to ONLY water at night! or very early in the morning! they can get really large so remember if u put it in a pot put it in the largest one u can find but in Florida i would think u could plant it in the ground with some good soil thats got plenty of nutrients in it! good luck! hope i helped!

Florida has lots of micro-climates. What will thrive in Miami might not make it in Jacksonville. Some plants offered in garden centers are often not suitable for your area. Best way to find out what grows well is to drive around the neighborhood. See what is growing - talk to neighbors. See source for a zone map and information on growing lots of stuff.
4 :
You can grow colorful annuals that you can find at any garden center. Zinnias, verbenas, impatiens, geraniums, and mexican heather are some of my favorites.

WELL LUCKILY FOR U I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA.. AND THE TAXES ARE PRETTY HIGH.. RENT IS HIGH.. COST OF LIVING IS HIGH.. PAY AINT THAT GOOD.. THERES ALOT OF ''COMPETITION'' FOR MEDIOCRE JOBES.. ITS NOT ''CHEAP'' I WOULD SAY ''FLORIDA'' THEY DONT CHARGE ''TAXES'' FOR HOMES OVER.. THERE.. ITS BETTER THERE.. FOR U

Both places are rather expensive. And both places have a lively culture. But I'm going to have to go with California, and let me tell you why. The University of Southern California has an incredible music program. And it's not just classical performing, they have a program that's very current with the music industry today. Los Angeles (the city that the university is around) has a very strong music scene. Anything from West Coast rap to rock....it's there. The city has a very diverse population, something that will serve you well as you're looking for connections for your career as well as your personal life. Again, it's the college that's the strongest factor in the decision, and USC is a very, very good school. It's rather competitive, though...so I hope you have your act together! If expense is really an issue, maybe Florida really is best. I'm not exactly sure about the colleges there, however. With your determination, you should have no problem adjusting to whatever state you ultimately decide. I'm an aspiring musician and producer myself, and so I wish you all the best in your career!

California is under the economic crisis right now, so you're better off with Florida.

You have to be a licensed driver in the state to register a vehicle. My parents live in Florida and Michigan. They chose to keep their cars registered, and their drivers licenses in Florida because the insurance rates are better.
2 :
Pick a state. Your best bet would be to pick the one you pay state income taxes in, and get your license and all your vehicles registered in that state so you can get the multi-car discount. Drive them where ever you'd like then.
3 :
You are supposed to register the cars in the state they are garaged. Same goes with insurance.
4 :
If you have a home and keep a car in Illinois, it should probably be registered in Illinois. I live in AZ, where we have a lot of seasonal residents, like Florida. Lost of people keep a vehicle here and drive it here, but register it in their home state, usually because it's cheaper there. If you're caught doing this here, it's up a $1000 fine because the state is being deprived of the taxes and fees on that vehicle. I think if you own a home, that establishes residency in that state. Of course, you can't have multiple drivers licenses. I'm sure this varies state-to-state, so you probable should check with the Illinois MVD.

Where is the safest place to live in Florida

Where is the safest place to live in Florida?
Away from tornado and hurricane threats, but still live near the beach (15 miles inland). I prefer southern (eastern or western) Florida because it's the warmest.

If you wish to be that close to the beach there is no safe place. However, Tallahassee is a nice area. I always wanted to live in St. Augustine but hurricanes hit there. Even Orlando (1.5 hours away from the beach) closed down because of hurricane conditions. First time ever that Disney World closed was about 8 years ago. Good luck with your search.
4 :
There really isn't one specific area in Florida that is safe. When hurricanes hit they can go through the entire state. Example being Hurricane Katrina, it went through Florida and into Louisiana and destroyed their town. Wherever you live in Florida you will get hit with at least one hurricane or "tropical storm" you just have to take the proper precautions
5 :
Tampa Bay, Clear Water, or St. Pete, or Sarasota. these are all in the same area but the best.
