Lionking: Good final point about fishing, which reminds me of another aspect of Lauderdale.
If you are into boating, salt water fishing, scuba diving, windsurfing, waterskiing, sailing etc, then Fort Lauderdale is SUPREME. The Keys and Bahamas area day trip away, you cannot find a better "home port" for an all around "waterman" than Lauderdale.
In fact, if all you know is boats, you can make a living in Lauderdale just working on boats. It truly is "The Venice of America" and the yachting capital of North America. This means thousands of jobs selling, chartering, painting, building, varnishing, crewing etc etc boats.
If you love warm water sports.....Lauderdale is IT.
