1. 1. Miami 2. Fort Lauderdale 3. Tampa 4. Orlando 5. Jacksonville All of the major Orlando Cities have their different charm and appeal!
2. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If you like cities with a Latin flair.. Miami would be it. If you like cities on a bay.. Tampa would be it. If you like safe cities.. Orlando isn't it. Just depends on your priorities.
3. Orlando - So much to do for families or couples Tampa/St. Pete - Gulf Coast FLL/Miami - gateway to the Keys - cruiseship haven - not so safe Has Southbeach area with art deco buildings and clubs/hotels, beaches Jax - beaches, hurricanes seem to avoid it, drivable to Disney St. Augustine - interesting historical sites Sanibel - shell hunting
