Hey everyone! Have you been hearing about the shifts in popular moving destinations lately? Well, it turns out Florida, long favored for its sunny skies and tax perks, is no longer the leader of the pack when it comes to where people are choosing to move. Let’s dive into what’s happening.

It's frightening that shark attacks seem to be increasing in the United States every year, but they are much more serious in one other area of our world — Australia. The total number of global shark attacks from 2012 to 2021 was 761, with 60 fatalities (per Florida Museum). Many of these attacks happened in Australia and the United States, with 259 non-fatal attacks with zero fatalities occurring in Florida and 143 attacks with 20 fatalities belonging to Australia during that same time period. Of the Australian attacks, many occur in one of the most popular surfing and tourist spots in New South Wales: Byron Bay. While the bay sees over 2 million visitors a year, it's one of the most dangerous places to swim.
