This is true whether you’re looking to retire to a condo on the beach or you’re a young professional moving to the area.

But, this affordability isn’t the whole story. If you’re like most of my clients you want to live somewhere affordable and with the lifestyle you desire. Well, you’re in luck when it comes to Southwest Florida homes. The benefits of living in our area go far beyond mere affordability, and today, we’re going to look at a handful of these benefits!
Commute Times are Low, and Gas is Cheap
First up, let’s talk about travel in our area. Even if you’re not coming down for work, you may have this factor on your mind. We’ve all heard horror stories about big cities where all you do is sit in traffic, whether you’re going to your job or just to see friends. But in Southwest Florida our traffic isn’t bad, commute times are low, and gas is fairly affordable. What this means is that you’re not stuck in traffic for so many hours in a day, and while you might enjoy your new home in Southwest Florida, you’re also free to enjoy your community as well.
You can Vacation Where Others Dream of Staying
Would it surprise you to hear that many Floridians choose to vacation in… Southwest Florida! Sanibel Island, Siesta Key, Marco Island. These are just a few of the locations that other Floridians travel to every year to sit back and relax. And it’s not just because of the beaches, though that helps. In fact, many of our areas have budding food scenes, entertainment options, shopping, and plenty of activities. This means that stay-cations really are a thing in our region, especially given how so many of our towns have their own distinct character.
