Stay Away! No Jobs! Crime! Corruption! Entitled Sn
If you are thinking of moving here do not! Unless you are the typical snobbish Snow Bird (6 months here with the "Florida hicks" and then "back home" for the other 6 months). People here are beyond rude, impatient, Entitled a**holes! They drive with this attitude and act this way to your face. We moved to this hellhole a little over a year ago and cannot wait to get the hell out. Crime is outrageous. Drugs. Poverty. Unemployment is rampant. My educated, highly skilled husband has finally (after a year) found employment at a $10 an hour job! Yankees come here and want to hire locals for $8 an hour and then treat them like crap.
The beaches are dirty and ugly. Plenty of bars surrounding Fort Myers Beach too.
Police, local government and public school system are totally corrupt and in it for themselves!
Be Warned. Stay away! Try Lakeland area if you are looking for a small town located between Tampa and Orlando. Very nice.
