surprise all of us.

The largest Florida populations are centered around 6 major metro markets which are almost all along the coast. The only exception to this is greater Orlando, which is central in the state. Nearly 75% of all residents in Florida live in these 6 geographical regions. Florida has over 400 cities and towns with much smaller populations and a very rural living feel for folks coming from all over the country and the world. In a state that is only basically 150 miles wide from the Atlantic to the Gulf, any beach is easily accessible. Florida is often referred to as a state of a thousand vacations. It would take almost a decade of weekend getaways to visit all the cool places in the state.
