Review of Panama City, Florida


If you like...
Star Rating - 5/4/2006
humidity, then you'll love Panama City, FL. It's hot here most of the year with very hot summers and mild winters. However the humidity makes the cold seem even colder. There are a lot of nice things about this area, including a fairly low crime rate, however, there is very little to do unless you love the beach, the saltwater and small town type events. The housing costs are going through the roof. Even small junky places are very overpriced. The economy here is terrible. Probably one of the lowest paying places anywhere and that's comparing it to any city its size, statistically speaking. The problem is there is too much old money still running the political scene. I've lived in this area since 1980 and I believe it's time for a permanent change of scenery.
