The girls in Tampa have very little bitch shields. As far as diversity, people that immigrate to the East Coast end up in Tampa or NYC. I saw 9's in Publix down there with EE accents.
I still dream of spending time in NYC, but natives from there have told me to plan on no more than a year stint, as it will wear on you. I can see that. LA wore on me. Tampa is more laid back, period. And yeah, the COS is a fraction of the other two.
Another observation of Tampa is everyone there isn't from there, so people seemed more open to you being a newbie. Total opposite from LA, and I can't speak of in NYC from not having enough time, but they did love my accent and were open to conversation. And that's all I need. But the novelty factor can run out quick, as we all know.
@Ali - Don't want to hijack this thread so maybe you can PM me. Is there a good Tampa data sheet that you know of? I may consider a trip there in the near future. I don't know anything about it though. How is it laid out? Where is the strip/hotspots and good areas?
