1/2/2018Additionally, housing is an absolute joke. $160,000 will get you a rehab home in the ghettto or a 2 bedroom condo with $800 HOA fees. Again, if you’re rich, you’ll love Sarasota. If you’re a working family, forget it.

Only for the elite -
1/2/2018After just 6 months of living here, we wanted to leave. Four years later we are finally making that happen. Pros include gorgeous beaches, health conscious markets and stores and warm weather. Cons: homeless everywhere, poor work ethic, arrogant and rude population. Entitlement runs high here. Babysitters expect $15 plus an hour, companies won’t work with you unless your request is a paying one ($$$$) and schools are far from excellent despite what statistics show. Everyone here is living a lie of falsified status because all you see is real wealth or poor- there’s no middle class. Who has the nicer car, home, life? Who has what? Who did what? On and on. It’s overbearing to meet so many people hung up on what they own rather than who they are, we’ve isolated ourselves from the masses in a town of complete transplants.
I can’t wait to leave this nightmare of a state. The beaches are the only positive left in my opinion and those are even becoming over crowded.
