Terrible Place, Low pay, -
5/4/2012I spent two years of my life in that crippy town trying to find a good job, but nothing came up. Despite i work in hospitality industry, must of hotels are express hotels or motels where you are exploited, at 8.00 or maximum 9.00 dollars hourly. After two years of being unhappy in that job I saved money, quit and moved to Phoenix, Arizona, where it tool me a week and a half in finding a great job, good pay in a great company. Feel glad to have made this decision.

Do not move here if you are a young professional!! There are not companies in this town that could hire you, I spent three months trying to find a job in the hotel industry, and no luck, nothing found, been to several interviews but nothing. You will end in a 7 Eleven if you are lucky. Must of jobs in this town are seasonal, snowbirds season from December to April, and are restaurant jobs which pay very low. Must of jobs in Naples do not required qualified people and the range of pay is from $8.00 to $10.00. It was really frustrating for me, at least I made the decision to move out of that miserable town where people just go to spent the senior years or to die.

If you are in working age, do not move here -
12/9/2011I came from overseas to live in the Ft Myers-Naples, area and is the worst mistake I could ever make, salaries are very low, there are no jobs, no big companies, economy relies in seasonal tourism after the season your hours are cut, snowbirds, high crime rate, not enough things to do. If you are a young professional I advise you to move to a major city where you can have more employment opportunities and career growth. rent is affordable, but if you don't make enough money, you can't enjoy. I made the decision to move out of state, made it late but at least I made it, and cannot wait to get out of this big ranch.
