Mainly the noise, how close everyone and everything is to each other, the traffic, pollution, crime, overpopulation, gloomy weather... etc. I been in Brooklyn for 24 years of my life, with the other 3 in Florida. Florida was like a breath of fresh air. Truthfully, the south is real dope, depending on where you live though. There's so much more sunshine, freedom, quietness, land, and real estate down there. With all that said it's still "the south" you know, and I don't necessarily feel a sense of belonging there. The people are kinda slow, there's more racism and crookedness, and they're way too traditional down there. These were the only options on the East Coast city wise (though Boston is a thought). West Coast, outside of Cali (which will have a BIG earthquake really soon) is mostly white ppl (Portland, Seattle, Vancouver, Vegas) and I'm not trying to stick out like a sore thumb. If I were to go back South, I've got Dallas and Houston in mind. But I've heard good things about Philly. Jersey has a lot more driving jobs tho (I'm a CDL driver) and yeah, it's closer to Manhattan which is cool.
