This state has a very large population of Military and retired military. I am convinced that in a SHTF situation that the LOE's and Military will be a force (gang/tribe) to be feared. With out power (A/C) Florida was a terrible place to be, as in pre WWII.

That saying comes from colonial times when settlers weren't allowed to go past a black stump.

No one knows exactly how future events...Hey Thomas,<br />No one knows exactly how future events will favor one region over another of course. But having lived in Fla for many decades, here are some of my thoughts:<br /><br />1.Food Production: Where I am in SWFL we are subtropical and practically a growing zone 11. Avocados, Mangoes, bananas, pineapples, Noni (medicinal), Cassava, Sweet Potatoes, many perrenial super nutritious leaf crops such as Katuk, Malabar Spinach and Chinese Longgevity Spinach, etc. can be grown here. Winters used to have 3 or 5 freezes but that hasn't been the case for many years. Hindering gardening are root knot nemotodes present in sandy soils with usually very low organic matter. High temps exponentially speed up decomposition and loss of soil amendments. But it can be done, techniques abound to counter these problems, but it ain't middle America ag. Most conventional gardening literature does not address conditions here.<br />That being said, I have a garden all year, some food trees, chickens and rabbits in a lower class neighborhood with adjacent scrap land I can exploit.<br />And another "all that being said", virtually no one else I know grows significant food here. Maybe one out of 5,000 if that. The huge population of Orlando and all south is utterly dependent on constantly trucked in food. We are a massively overdevloped, overpopulated peninsula. <br /><br />2. You don't have to spend any energy or resources dealing with harsh winters here. I'm aclimitized to living and working in very hot, humid conditions all the time. The sun is very intense. This freaks many newcomers (and even people who have been here a long time). A soft, overentertained population can't have their shirt sticking to them and be covered in sweat 2 minutes after leaving their a/c bubble. But the majority of the population here would not be here without a/c (or mosquito control). Absolutely no doubt about it. If I have to stay here grid down, I plan on building a chickee hut for sleeping and cooking. Basically a pole barn with no walls, elevated floor and palm thatched roof (salvage metal roofing is my backup plan). Hammocks with mosquito netting will be strung from support poles.<br /><br />Sorry to ramble, I can go on but have to go pick up one of,my kids from scouts. This would probably work as a guest article, as would all the views of commenters here pro and con of their area/state. Thanks S.

Geographically, you're surrounded on 3 sides with a material that wants to kill you. Demographically you are mixed up with 21 million 2 legged varmints that don't give one shit about you.
