18 & Homeless in MN, Dreaming of Moving to Florida (Visited Before) Advice?

2 months ago 111

I’m 18 and currently homeless in Minnesota. It’s been rough, especially with the cold. Florida has been my dream for a while the warmer weather, beaches, and vibe just feel right. I’ve actually visited Florida before, specifically South Miami so I know it’s not completely unfamiliar, and I’m really wanting that fresh start.

I know it’s a huge risk, but I really think it will be worth it. I just got some cash benefits loaded on my EBT card, and I’ve been seriously considering making the move. The problem is: I don’t know anyone in Florida, don’t have a job lined up, and I’m worried about ending up in an even worse spot with higher rents in a lot of areas and no support network.

Before I make any big move, I wanted to ask for honest advice, Has anyone here moved across states while young and homeless? What worked or didn’t?
