Cape Coral, FL
Living is Easy? -
4/6/2013Cape Coral is a large town ( 125,000 pop) n the Gulf Coast of Fl, near Fort Myers. Largest city between Tampa and Miami in SW Florida. Mostly Retired, but growing young working class, married with children, excellent schools, particularly the City run Charter schools. Fantastic Parks and Recreation Dept ( One of the best in State of Florida offering sports, culture and entertainment for the adults and kids. Housing is a bargain right now, employment available, but like rest of south, wages are lower than up north. Only bad point in my opinion is the city council and mayor. It seems like we have had a run of idiots the past few years and city spending and budgeting is out of wack as well as some city rules and regs.
Overall though a great place to live, retire or raise a family.
