Interesting Place -
4/12/2013I just relocated to Crestview. Been a very big roller coaster ride for me but all in all not a bad place. My 1st mistake is I rented a house site unseen. once I got down here it was in a older area north of the city outside the city limits. Run down but not unsafe... I had a major encounter with Palmetta bugs and vacated the home, the landlord was nice enough to refund me the money...... Then the hard stuff bagan. A search for a new home to live in.. found older run down houses mixed in with beautiful new houses all over the city, the range of prices for rentals was all over the place.... RENTER BEWARE... seems to be a lot of SLUM LORDS.... If you take your time you will find the perfect home for the perfect price. stay south of 10 for nicest places. BEST PLACE because it is closer to beaches and away from the nightmare traffic north of RT 10.... Also be careful with speed and watch the speed limit signs, they jump up and down drastically on the same stretches of roads and the cops love that!!! city of crestview, okaloosa county,state troopers, and Military Police all over the place. yes MP's can and will pull you over especially south on rt85 because you are going thru the heart of Elgin AFB.
