We lived in Lakeland (Polk County) from 1979 to 2005. I visited some friends in 2012. The area has gone to hell IMO. I wouldn’t move back there for love nor money.
Disclaimer: Even if crime hadn’t increased, we didn’t like Florida weather and traffic. Growth ruined a very nice place. I moved there in 1965 and it was a totally different world.
They all have Mexican names hmmmm

Sylmar is something of a sleepy town northwest of Los Angeles, but its the site of what might be the biggest drug bust ever. In 1989, authorities seized more than 21 tons of cocaine worth roughly $6.9 billion on the street sitting in a nondescript warehouse.
sylmar near the I-5, 210, and 118 is great place to get out of if things get hot. Full of illegals down by the Freeways

Haines city here.
Adding to my files. Did this happen in a Democrat area?
Part of the county is gerrymandered into the Dem area west of Orlando for Congressional purposes, but Polk County is mostly solid red/GOP.
