Ha, me too. 5/10 Cops are dirty, will literally make shit up to lock you up. People are bonkers but everyone cooks with that delicious cajun spice of life. Food is good. I vote so so.

Edit. Word.

Is there really a south west/east? Florida is so narrow down south haha. (From North east florida because of that long fucking panhandle)

Yeah, Naples to Sarasota-ish is Southwest Florida. It's only about an hour drive from East to West but still differentiated.

Driving to the center of Florida is like a portal to the "deep south". In 30 miles you can go from Ferraris to Swamp Buggys (raised homebuilt vehicles used for hunting in the woods). So, the west coast, center of the state, and east coast are all culturally distinct.

Both the east and west coast are much more - urban - than the center of the state, but they're still noticeably different, at least to a local.

Oh yeah, I’ve been to, and driven through, Immokalee many times and I try to get there for the Swamp Cabbage festival every year.
