The capital of the Sunshine State, Tallahassee, is one of the state\u2019s oldest and most unusual cities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s so special about it? While Florida isn\u2019t exactly famous for its rugged terrain, Tallahassee is one exception. This is actually the hilliest city in Florida, which gives it a uniquely picturesque charm. Known as the most educated city in Florida<\/a>, Tallahassee\u2019s also deservedly famous as a college town, with over 70,000 students<\/a> living in its many neighborhoods. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there\u2019s more to Tallahassee than hills and higher education. A vibrant mix of families, retirees, and recent graduates has made Tallahassee neighborhoods their homes. With great weather and a relatively affordable cost of living, Tallahassee should be on your list if you\u2019re looking for the best places to move in Florida<\/a>. And if you\u2019re looking for a good place to start learning about the city, this article will give you a sample of the best neighborhoods in Tallahassee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The city is just 22 miles from the Gulf of Mexico<\/a> (and some of Florida\u2019s best beaches), and 20 miles from the Georgia border<\/a>. It\u2019s also home to breathtaking nature, such as the Apalachicola National Forest, allowing residents to take advantage of nearby natural springs and rivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
