All three states were hit very hard by housing foreclosures. A lot of sprawling suburbia that expanded too fast and was way overpriced for what it should have costed. Result is large communities that have been broken. I don t know what the jobs situation is like everywhere, but one of my relatives moved to Reno, NV several months ago and hasn t been able to find any work. The recession has hit casinos as hard as any other industry, and they aren t hiring anymore.For pros, Nevada and Arizona have a LOT of outdoor open spaces, mainly desert if you are into that kind of thing. Florida has its beaches.Given the choice, I would go with Nevada, just because it is close to the natural beauty of the Sierra in California, and it doesn t get AS ridiculously hot as Arizona and Florida.
Florida, because of the beachy location and convenience of Disneyworld.Nevada if want excessive heat, and convenience of casinos and tourists.Arizona, blah.
