Naples, Florida - A Horrible Place to Live, and Be
- 5/10/2013
I was quite surprised (and relieved) to see all the very negative reviews about Naples, Florida. I lived there for more than a decade and I would not recommend living there or visiting there. It is a horrible place to be on many levels. People who have commented here on this site already have it right when they say it is for conservative, wealthy, old people, and it is a place with no jobs, no opportunities and nothing to do. It is also, as some have noted already, a place where there is no civil rights. If this is the sort you enjoy - a corrupt law enforcement, corrupt judiciary, corrupt local newspaper, and no opportunity, then, by all means, move to Naples, Florida and wave your American flag. For those of us who prefer job opportunities, civil rights, and free speech in these United States, the best place to live (and visit) is SOMEWHERE ELSE! Here's a little tip for you: it doesn't take any drugs or alcohol to get yourself arrested in Naples, FL for a DUI; it can happen for any

Police Officer are not fair to the innocent
- 2/26/2013
My high end home in a very exclusive neighborhood home was broken into while I was going thru a divorce. Two armed men broke into my home and thank goodness that I had 2 dogs with me. One was trained as a guard dog and one was just a pet. The police did not take my situation serious at all. Their police dogs chased the scent to the end of my street stating that the men most likely had a car waiting for them. I could have been murdered that night if it was not for my dog. The police did not take any of my situation serious at all and that is due to they were friends with my then stepson. Heaven help anyone who needs a first responder police officer and hope you receive fair treatment. I am moving from Naples and I have been here for 30 years due to I do not feel at all safe in my own home due to the certain actions of my ex and the police that know him. My ex is massive pain medication drug abuser and they look away from that fact and never do anything about that situation. It is a

Moving to Naples
- 1/15/2012
Hello
My name is DeeDee and I am looking to move to Naples from New Mexico. I choose Naples because it is seems quite and has beautiful beaches. I was reading some of what others have said and It is not looking good from what others think. How horrible is the job market there? I am a Dental Assistant. I don't care about Night life as I would rather take my dog to the beach and bring a container of ice tea and watch the sun set than go partying. I have seen online some nice apts that seem affordable. So why do so many people seem to not like Naples? What about some of the good about Naples. I will be down there in March to apply for jobs and secure a place to live. Any possitive

Do not move here if you are a young professional!!
- 12/15/2011
Do not move here if you are a young professional!! There are not companies in this town that could hire you, I spent three months trying to find a job in the hotel industry, and no luck, nothing found, been to several interviews but nothing. You will end in a 7 Eleven if you are lucky. Must of jobs in this town are seasonal, snowbirds season from December to April, and are restaurant jobs which pay very low. Must of jobs in Naples do not required qualified people and the range of pay is from $8.00 to $10.00. It was really frustrating for me, at least I made the decision to move out of that miserable town where people just go to spent the senior years or to

What makes Naples such boring town.
- 11/25/2010
Eight month ago, I moved out here from Hollywood, Florida, to spend more time with my precious daughter. I've been divorce for 13 years, but I have always been there for her. She is about to graduate from High School and we parents know, how difficult it is to deal with them at that age. To compound the problem, there is absolutely nothing to do in this city but to go to the movies. In the past three weeks, I have seen the movie Wall Street, at least 10 times. Golf? I do not play any golf.Furthermore, it is almost impossible to make any friends. Nobody talks to anybody anymore. Back in the good old days, neighbors knew each other.Kids could play outside safely. If there was a BBQ on a Sunday afternoon, everybody was invited. Sadly, that is not the case anymore. I can't wait for my precious daughter to graduate. I will be out of here the following

Real Estate an Investment in Naples
- 8/19/2010
Naples has been my home for 10 years now a mid point to being a native. Very few people who live here are natives. Most of us seem to have gotten to Naples by way of Vacation, looking for good weather in the winter months, searching for an investment property or lucky enough to be relocated early in our professional careers. Naples has proven to be everything that we were looking for as we began to think about retiring.
The diversity in Naples begins with the fact that people come here from all over the world. Again what may begin as a travel or vacation area very soon results in folks; from Canada, Germany, Sweden, UK you name the country, wanting to own their part of this Gulf Coast Paradise.
You will find everything here in one form or another, fine arts, Philharmonic, boating, fishing, white sand beaches, fine restaurants. Luxury seems to be a key word describing Naples Florida. It's Luxury Boats, homes, condos.
One of my favorate things to

WOW
- 8/14/2010
Naples has some of the most beautiful homes I have ever seen, and some of the most expensive places to live. Which is great if you are rich. Its a real shame that the "average" income person cant afford to live here. I am a single working "gal" and wanted to start a new live here in Naples, but that is not possible with the salary I make(no job market either)unless I want to live among the drug dealers and "mean" people of Naples (Crimes areas). Where do the nice, clean, honest, kind hearted people in Naples go to live? They dont live here, they leave!!!! they cant afford it. Instead seems Naples is left to the "people with money" that are hateful, rude, could care less about others, or the people that want to sell you drugs, do propery damage or casue problems for others.

It takes a certain mindset to live here...
- 6/3/2010
After working in the Naples area for over 2 years and living here permanently for close to a year, I've given moving some serious thought. As a transplant and a 21-year old student at the local college I can tell you there is not a whole lot to do here and it is difficult to advance or find new opportunities. Like many will say it is quite diverse, but people generally keep to themselves and their own background or tax bracket making the diversity nothing to write home about. Being yourself is not really encouraged, so if you decide to come here you'll want to find a niche and you better hope your pockets are lined with money or you will be quite bored. It's kind of a shame, because the town itself is really nice, well-kept, with great beaches and pleasant winters. It's one of those places you will either love or hate, so consider taking an extended vacation to see everything and do some research. If you can't afford said vacation, you certainly won't be able to afford an enjoyable
