Review of Lehigh Acr,


Nice community but terrible shopping or anything r
Star Rating - 8/6/2014
Been living in Lehigh since Dec 2010. Got an awesome deal on a foreclosed home and have seen the value begin to rise. That is good. (except for the taxes) However, my biggest issue with living here is the lack of shopping or businesses here not named Family Dollar lol. I think Lehigh leads the world in dollar stores per capita. I would love to see shopping strip malls added with actual small businesses in them. We seem to have a glut of health care stuff but a complete lack of shopping. Also, no real restaurants to speak of unless you like diner type places and even then we are limited. What all that means is if you want any of that you will be driving to Ft. Myers or Naples to get it. I wish I had a lot of money because I would put in a big chain restaurant, a nice movie theater and would become even richer. Those 2 things alone would be absolutely crowded and packed. hint, hint, hint...

There has to be a major reason why no one want to invest on any major retails stores/Malls or well know named restaurants. Business investors always do extensive research on population’s habits before they venture on any new investments. I believe they have found that people's income in Lehigh is low and people rather go by without the luxury of going without spending what they don't have in eating out or going shopping. If you look at it in a positive way, it is better for they will leave healthier not eating junk food, and will have less stress by not spending what they don't have.
