Does anyone know the job market down there? My bf and I will be college grades with a BS in Bio for him and a BA in English for me... We are just trying to escape New England.

for fu-k sake why? Tampa sucks. Most of florida sucks. New England has a much better thriving economy with more opportunities. Tampa is just this huge suburban sprawl. What's so bad bout New England?

There's really nothing to do in Tampa. I really you recommend you built up your resumes in a place where you're likely to get decent jobs like the Northeast.

I'm amused by you. You should realize that people have different opinions.

Without graduate school, I don't anything particularly attractive especially in Florida overall. I could be wrong.

We are just trying to escape New England. there's really nothing for those degrees; however, you can use the bio degree to apply for medical school or something in the medical profession. Since Florida is a retirement/tourist state, we have a lot of elderly people (they tend to get sick often). So with any health profession degree, you're guarantee to have a job.
