A Great Place To Live If You Have Staedy Work! -
3/20/2011Fort Myers has a lot going for it: beautiful scenery and constant sunshine; a warm, year-round climate, and fairly low utility costs. It also has very nice people and wonderful restaurants. If you love all the above (along with outdoor activities), then this is the place for you.
Please note though that this area, along with much of Florida, relies primarily on tourism. As a result, jobs are mainly service-related, and not always very easy to get. When the tourist season ends, companies cut back on hours, and steady work is a challenge to get during the off-season unless you are lucky.
My advice to any person of working age considering a move to Fort Myers is simple: make sure that you have a stable, full-time, year-round job with a financially sound company before you move here. Otherwise, don't even think of living here as a permanent resident.
In addition, when considering the area of Fort Myers in which you plan to live, you should certainly do research to determine which parts are nice, and which ones aren't. Failure to do such research can cause serious problems for you.
If you consider everything I have stated, and still want to move to Fort Myers, then my response is: go for it!
