Small city on the tip of the panhandle in Northwest Florida. Founded by Spanish settlers in the 1600s, the city had been used primarily as a port and coastal defense asset. Since then, it has developed and attracted numerous military bases. Pensacola and the surrounding area is home to the Navy's flight demonstration squadron, the Blue Angels, primary flight training for Naval Aviators and Flight Officers, as well as advanced training for Navy helicopter pilots and jet flight officers.
Pensacola is known for its sugar-sand beaches, numerous golf courses (including the Moors, host of the annual Blue Angel Classic), and exciting downtown night life. Popular locations incluce Pensacola Beach, Perdido Key, Seville Quarter, McGuire's, O'Reillys, Flounders, Bamboo Willies, Brews Brothers, and many others.
Pensacola has numerous ethnic restaraunts, as well as Southern flavors, a bustling regional airport, two malls, rapid urban and suburban growth, a dedicated interstate, a greyhound track, motor speedway, 30,000+ person civic center, fairgrounds, and no less than 6 Wal-Marts in the general vicinity.

Interesting facts: Escambia County, Pensacola's home, has the highest number of churches per capita than any other county in Florida.

A little bit about us "Pensacola Beach" kids
We are locals. Respect us, bitches. We mess with Tourists. WE DONT LIKE TOURISTS, but we do put up with them ('cuz you pay for our summer jobs!)
We don't, however put up with their crazy ass driving, which is why most of us are waving the bird driving down 98.
We party hard. Give us a handle of Morgan, Bottle of Jager, or TONS of Brewski's (Within an Hour we'll have to go on another beer run.) and we are content to lie in the sun for hours.
We live here. It's more than just the "Emerald Coast"it's the "REDNECK RIVERIA"! We have suffered through numerous hurricanes (had margarita parties throughout them all), but we're still here.
We are BIGGER and BETTER than Laguna Beach, with more DRAMA and better tans.
We wear rainbows year round.
And don't even think of making fun of Jimmy Buffet
no matter how cheesy his lyrics are.
It's not a vacationing spot for us, it's home.
We don't live "on" the beach.
We OWN it.
We know if your lookin' for anyone on any given summer day, you go to 18th.
We ALL belong to the "Redneck Yacht Club". We OWN wave runners, we don't rent them, and we don't haul ass through the no wake zones on them. No, Wings is not an outlet mall or the local "surf shop"
it's just a way to launder Pakistani drug money. We have true "Innerlight".
We do make fun of your HIDEOUS tan lines
and outrageous skanky clothing
(no, you're not that cute with third degree burns). Yes, vacation sex will give you syphilis and you will die.
We know most guys from Georgia or Tennessee are here to tap a local girl,
but chances are
they won't.
We are the kids brave enough
to throw bonfires and keggers in a 6ft hole on the beach.
We have been bred to chug funnels
from the top of yachts or from the top of our parent's condo
and that's how we like it.
You Think you're cool cause you visit and have one good week of partying
That's how we roll ALL YEAR 'ROUND!

City in extreme northwestern Florida. It feels more like Alabama more than Florida. The eastern part of town is where the rich and middle-class people live. The west side is the ghetto.
Currently the poorest city in Florida.
Man 1: Are you sure that we are in Florida?
Man 2: I don't know, we may be in Alabama.
(Man 2 sees a sign saying Pensacola, FL)
Man 1: That answers my question

The only place where you can be bored and entertained at the same time. Rich kids live over near Ransom and Tate, poor kids live near Brownsville.(The worst part of town ever) If you grow up here, you know where to go and where not to go. But if you're hungry and a teen, What-A-Burger is the best place to grab a bite to eat and socialize. :
Pensacola, party your ass off!
