MOVING TO SPRING HILL - EVERYTHING U NEED TO KNOW

[@coolgeorgiaboy]

I'm a nurse and I bought 4b/3b with a pool house in Spring Hill in 2018 my home value has increased 40k in just 3 years. I live in the Seven Hills Community. There are no houses for sale in my neighborhood. The cheapest houses are starting around 290k.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

The drive along 19 is actually not that bad, specially north of 50.

[@1Skeptik1]

@Combustible Bunny Ha! You need to travel more than 10 miles from home.

[@cg858]

I lived and grew up in Spring Hill. I graduated at Central High School 2010. Let me tell you, this is a very accurate, unbiased and correct analysis of Spring Hill. This uploader really did his homework. Also, Spring Hill has a lot of water and beautiful scenery as well.

[@johnwhitmer8463]

I'm don't totally agree with the majority of this video. I have lived in this area for 35 years plus. I raised 4 daughters who graduated from schools in Pasco County. My oldest daughter is in the 6 figure tax bracket. The second to the oldest is a stay at home Mother. The next daughter is a server at a nice restaurant that has a good clientele. She is also a mother of 1. My youngest daughter is a manager at the busiest racetrac in the Tampa area and her salary is over 60 thousand plus monthly bonuses are nothing to be ashamed of. I have seen her bonuses and close to a grand pet month. She also is a Mother of 1. 2 of the 4 own their homes . So this area can be good for raising children.. If you raise your children with the standards and respect that people are supposed have. This area can be as good as any other place in the whole United States. Family values are nonexistent in this world we live in. Yes there is a bad drug presence in this area but every town has a drug problem. The problem is the government will not address the drugs epidemic in this country. This epidemic has been evident in the United States for decades. It's been going on since the Vietnam War and before. The prejudice problem is equally evident in this whole country. If you give RESPECT to the majority of People will give you the same respect that you give them. We are all created with the same rights to be anything they want to be. We all have the same equally possibilities to be successful in life. It's up to the individual to make the right choices in life. We all want to live the American dream. That dream is what YOU make of it. You can't judge a book by its cover nor can you judge a person by their looks. There is only One who can judge us. The economy has a lot to do with how things are going in our country. Both parents have to work full-time jobs just to keep a roof over their families heads. Yes this video is one person's opinion about the areas they drive thru. Opinions we all have. But RESPECT is nonexistent in today's world. You don't have to like a person for whatever reasons you feel. But EVERY person on God's earth deserves respect. The political saying is agree to disagree. Like I stated before we all deserve to be respected. You only get what you give Respect me and I will give you the respect you gave me. This is My opinion and like I said in the beginning, I don't agree with the majority of the content of this video but I respect his opinion. Good night and thank you for listening to my opinion. Positive Vibes Only Peace and Love Always Hippie John ✌️ I currently live in Hernando County on 3.5 acres 1 mile from the expressway. I hope that someone will get some knowledge from my opinion.

I bought my house 3 years ago in Spring Hill and yes I work in Tampa takes me an hour to get to work. I enjoy my life because I'm not wasteful and know how to manage my debt and take many vacations with wife and kids. Not much to do out here so I'm pretty much back in Tampa/Clearwater/Brandon area. But your rants are funny. I have great neighbors but also your correct about Northerners. Many houses I find are not owner occupied or used as rental properties. I move for investment reasons. I'm a Florida native and also grew up in California. It's growing fast 😭 but like I said I'm here for investment. Northerners do not know how to drive frustrating almost like sleep driving lol. Meth heads are a problem I didn't even know about it till I moved here and to see how people carry themselves. Missing teeth black teeth kind of scary lol.

Been in Spring Hill for 45 years. A few points you missed is a huge presence of homeless people. I know quite a few of them due to having alot of empty property around my home. The crazy part is that most of them are getting disability every month, and pan handle during the day, and they make over 100 bucks a day in like 4 hours. I would say a very High percentage of them are on meth and crack. I've been robbed more than 5 times so far. I have a 1000 sqft garage apart from the house. Finally got tired of replacing tools every year, so now its covered in cameras and alarm system.

I live in Spring Hill, Fl now for a year. I moved here for the schools being rated higher than Tampa. Stop 🛑 please with you know it all. I’ve been to Naples and it was more scary across from the beach and high end high rises. I haven’t seen but 3 homeless people here and I haven’t seen drugged out people. Don’t listen to this man. I live here. I have a beautiful home. Got a great deal for first time homeowner through FHA. I live by surround by I know 6 homeowners and only 1 rental. No HOA, but you can’t tell because everyone takes care of their properties. People should already take into consideration where they work or plan to when buying a home. So, if you committed to get a country feel by moving to Spring Hill. There is old homes yes! Every place has its ZIP codes. There are poor yes. That is very where. It’s is beautiful country here. Beautiful homes here. I just don’t like him thinking he knows people here and he doesn’t. This place reminds me of a Lexington, Ky. I lived there 17 years. I am from the county born and raised. I do like the diversity.

Lake city nearby i DID NOT LIKE IT. very trashy town. ALACHUA, nearby.. DID NOT LIKE IT. trenton nearby, VERY COUNTRY but trashy.. if its anything like the surround area.. (which it may not be)... I did not like it. you have to be a very southern person with low sensibility to backwoods stuff for that region of florida. its like what you'd think Alabama would be. do watch their real estate its incredible how cheap. make sure you ask people around the property about mosquitoes.. ticks, and other pest that could make your life miserable for huge portions of the year. Drugs have made a huge dent into rural florida. just make sure your sensibility to hillybilly land is not too high. cuz its backwoods for sure. but hey, that might be nice for you. more down to earth people. if your coming from the city life and used to it id say NO 🤣🤣😃😃😃

compared to Naples few restaurants. try the croom wildlife area! rainbow river, the caves north of brooksville! cedar key, micanopy. cross creek, there are things out there you just need to expand your thinking of fun. try going to swampys bar and grill in dunnellon or the clearwater mall? how abot the homosassa river? rent a boat there and go to monkey island. becareful going out the rocks are bad you can crash but if you go north its cool. plenty to do just expand your idea of fun.

The reason I moved to Florida was because it was dirt cheap! I moved from D.C. the only way I passed the time down there was doing KZbin vlogs. I had to move back to VA because I wasn’t happy.

[@kenroberts7031]

I live in the area, and factually you are getting a lot wrong. For instance, Pinellas county is not the "whitest county"...there is a significant black and latino population there. And Tampa, the place you claim that everyone drives to work, is not 60 miles away... Just hop on state road 589 and you can get there is 30-35 minutes, and ANYTIME you live on the outskirts of a major city, because of all the benefits on not living right in the city, there is going to be a commute.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

Definitely agree with not getting a house on a main Street, it can be a nightmare getting in and out of the driveways. One of the streets has a posted speed limit of 45mph and it can be a challenge. Also streets can be semi confusing to newer visitors (or even people who don’t travel that area often) because there are a couple with the same name on opposite sides of the city and they don’t connect (under the name they have a 1, 2, or a 3 to make it “easier” but lol no). Off the top of my head I can count 2 movie theaters, 2 bowling alleys, 4 McDonalds, 3 Burger Kings, 3 Taco Bell’s, 2 Applebee’s, 1 Popeyes, 1 Denny’s, 1 IHOP, 1Red Lobster, 1 Cody’s, 1 Texas Roadhouse, 2 Pizza Huts, and various others. Even our fancy dress restaurants (when you can find them) are varying degrees of fancy. We are building more stores and it is nice to see. I’ve lived here my whole life and I’m really starting to see more younger families move into the area. When I was growing up (90’s) it was still more of an older generation area. So while my school did have a lot of kids in it, my blocks didn’t have too many same age friends in quick walking distance. Our one big attraction is Weeki Wachee state park (live underwater mermaid show) and Buccaneer Bay water park (think small scale) and the springs where you can kayak and canoe down. But the water is ALWAYS cold because it is spring fed it stays around 68-72 degrees. But it’s a nice bit of history (Elvis actually visited back in the day)

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

LAD385ify would u consider it a tourist trap? Its so packed always.. i stay at hotel across the street and cant believe the lines to get in

[@LAD385ify]

I think it might be an interesting stop to go to the parks if you are in the area. It does fill up fast as once they reach the full capacity they stop letting anyone else in even if people leave during the course of the day, no more tickets are sold. In my opinion it’s worth a shot if you are interested in that sort of thing, but if you don’t the chance, you aren’t missing out on too much because it is a smaller park so don’t go expecting big park experiences. Also there are a few public beaches in the area if you want that instead. One is at the end of the kayak path from renting at the park and I believe that beach has free parking (smaller lot though) and it’s colder fresh water on the spring. Then you have Pine Island (pay to park) and that is warmer salt water as it’s off the gulf. But I like the history of the park and it holds a special place in my heart. It is interesting to see the mermaids perform. Kids might get a kick out of it. It has been a while since I’ve gone so I’m unsure of ticket prices, if you can get combo tickets for both parks or just one side. Hope this helps any

How you make money in realestate is you buy as much land as possible outside devoted areas. The one thing that noone can make any more of is property so if you buy on the outskirts of a big developed area sooner or later that property will be valuable.

My family, 6 of us, moved to Florida from the southwest desert. I am retired and didn’t need or want to be in a big city, been there did that. The younger kids wanted to be in the Tampa area; I wanted affordability so my mortgage would be very low. In 2021 we found a great house that backs onto a pond in what is a really nice neighborhood where pride of ownership is very important and there is an unspoken agreement about maintaining curb appeal. The move’s biggest surprise is that my housing dollar went farther here than it would have at that time in Santa Fe, New Mexico, which was my previous home town. I think where I am is beautiful, I love Florida and in 15 minutes from Sam’s at the Beach. I’m surprised listening to this narrative which sounds like this guy thinks every con he brings up isn’t found in every suburb or bedroom community.
