A large town south of Fort Myers. Here are 7 useful tips about the area, both positive and negative.
1. For the most part, self-worth is based on the person's wealth, or that of their
parents.
2. Most of the people are recent transplants from New York,
Michigan, Illinois, Mexico, and Cuba.
3. It is the unofficial Ed Hardy capital of Southwest
Florida.
4. There are two well-known nightclubs in town and Vision offers open bar on Thursdays for a small extra charge. Like any club though, a large presence of d-bags can be the norm.
5.
Home to some very nice beaches. Soft sand and warm
water, if you enjoy swimming and relaxing it's a good place to
go.
6.
Home to the best one of the best skateparks in the SWFL area. Best time to go is early in the day, after about 3 or 4 it really crowds up.
7. Due to a lack of big universities, it is sort of a ghost town, leaving mostly Townies that like to cause drama and fights between eachother, wear lots of
tight-fitting Ed Hardy to show everybody just "how jacked and tan I am" (see my new haircut), and other sketchy types. Good people are around but are too few and far between to really make this a "spot" for meeting decent people.
All in all, it's a great for retirees, vacationers and people with some
cash to blow. But for those trying to make something of themselves, consider an alternative.
