re: A good place to retire! - 11/7/2010
Great decision. Here is another option for people moving to Florida. My wife and I have lived in Tampa all our lives and wanted to stay close to our family but still wanted something different than living in the middle of the city so after careful consideration and lots of looking our real estate agent lead us about 25 minutes south of Tampa to Apollo Beach. It is a rather small community that is made up of waterfront homes, convenient shopping, fishing, golfing, and several retirement communities. We chose the beautiful DEL WEBB " SOUTHSHORE FALLS". As all Dell Webb communities it is kept up immaculately with a clubhouse, pool area (Lap pool, Resistance pool, Jacuzzi,) coffee shop, internet cafe, Ballroom, and state of the art excursive facility. There is also a putting green by this pool. On the other side of the property is another pool and pickle ball court. Within 3 miles of the subdivision a Trauma 1 Hospital is being built. 13 mile away is also Tampa General Hospital (Trauma1) which rates #1 in many specialties. Southshore Falls is also close to I-75, I-4, and the Crosstown Expressway making it easy to reach most anywhere in the city and also St.Pete, Sarasota, and surrounding areas. You can find this community on the internet. A happy resident
