Palm Coast, FLORIDA
- 9/11/2012
Palm Coast, Florida has affordable housing. It is a mixture of all cultures. It is a well kept area. But very hot long summers typical of Fl with summer thunderstorms sometimes. Churches of all religions from close and afar. Palm Coast FL is mostly flat, mowed fields with subdivision cheap houses on it and very few trees. Just flat and hot with dirty canals to collect the water so it doesn't flood too much. There were some trees but most were bulldozed down to make building a bunch of flat cheap homes easier. The big banks stole many houses so most streets have 10+ terrible looking vacant houses that the Big Banks and gov Fannie Mae refuse to rent or sell. A severe shortage of housing if you are looking to lease, as the houses here are kept vacant. These houses could all be rented in a week as so many need to rent houses here, but the big banks and the gov have made so much in stealing these houses that they refuse to rent them, even though there are many responsible families and

It's beautiful
- 4/4/2011
Pros: beautiful environment, trees, cheap housing, climate, low crime. Cons: New Yorkers, no jobs, few man-made attractions. Could be regarded either way: limited shopping. Consumer oriented people complain about lack of shopping centers; I think it's a plus.
I spent my life looking for the ideal place to live. I lived in 16 cities in the last 12 years and visited 45 states. I could have retired anywhere in the US. I chose Palm Coast.
I love living in a house surrounded by palm trees and tall pines. I love going to an undeveloped and nearly deserted Atlantic beach a few minutes away. I love being surrounded by wildlife sanctuaries and beautiful wilderness parks.
Look elsewhere if you want a picturesque walkable downtown (you want Mount Dora), cultural attractions such as museums and restaurants (stay in the Northeast), or attractive, friendly neighbors (move to Alabama). I don't care about jobs, but I can't avoid wondering what non-retired

No longer 5 Best Places to Retire
- 2/15/2011
As young retirees from a major city in New Jersey infested with crime and lousy city services we did extensive research prior to purchasing our home in Florida. Our main criteria were low crime, efficient city services, no HOA fees, no State taxes, that quality of life issues were enforced and of course hiking, beaches, parks, etc. A family friend mentioned Palm Coast and how great it was. We did more research on the area prior to heading down. It was rated 5 of the best places to retire by Fortune Magazine, the crime rate at that time (2009) was violent crime 3 & property crime 2, so we decided to stop by on our way to other locations on our list. Well we loved the location, right off I-95, close to the beaches on A1A, in the middle of St. Augustine and Daytona Beach, close to the airports, some modest homes at great prices – foreclosures/short sales. We like what we saw, the city services very efficient, parks, bike trails, beaches, retirement at its finest so we decided to

Palm Coast Florida - Great retirement place but no
- 11/8/2009
Lets be honest, Palm Coast Florida is a great place to live if your looking for a nice crime free community with many retirement activities and like going to the beach. But if you’re looking for work and a place to raise a family, you may want to look elsewhere. Near perfect weather with slightly cool winters but without that extreme heat and humidity in the summer months like the southern Florida locations. People are mostly from the upper northern states such as New York, New Jersey, Road Island, Connecticut, Vermont, PA, etc. Lots of nearby attractions in St. Augustine and Jacksonville to the north, and in Daytona Beach and Orlando to the

Know what your real needs are before you move
- 10/3/2009
I moved to Palm Coast several months ago as my eldest daughter lives here with her family. I thought I was looking for a change in location and life (duh!). Having visited multiple times, I thought it was a good idea. Wonderful climate here even though I now know I miss the changing season's even the snow. What I realized is if you are a couple married or not, have children or you are retired and elderly this is a wonderful place to live. If your not any of the above, you'll not be happy. At this time there is nothing to do other than Walmart and the new Super Target strip mall. NO MiddleEastern food, no Indian cusine or a bonfide kosher deli. I can see in the future it will probably be a great place to live for the group of people such as myself when there are other things here such as Jobs, a movie theater etc. Palm Coast is growing, however it is so buccolic in the Stepford kind of setting that I've given myself no more than the first of the year to go back home. I don't see
