"Tallahassee is growing, moving up in the ranks as a top mid-size city, appealing for a feel that is both urban and suburban. The state capital wows with its historic downtown, public art works and a vibrant nightlife scene, as well as public parks and green spaces. Tallahassee is also less than one hour from sandy beaches at Bald Point State Park. Enjoy a self-guided mural tour, go swimming at Lake Hall or climb to the top of 80-foot-tall St. Marks Lighthouse, the second oldest light station in Florida."
