Tampa and Ft Meyers are way too crowded for me. Sarasota been great!
I will respectfully disagree. I sold the previous Florida house and had a new one built in very South Fort Myers this year. I enjoy the winter weather and getting away from the snow. We were boating until 7:30 last night and just made plans to go boating this Saturday. It is an easy boat ride to Marco island or Sanibel.

There are many things that are not great, with Florida drivers being first on that list. Yes, in season it gets a little crowded but you just have to pick and choose when you schedule anything. Being semi-retired it is easy to stay out of stores and restaurants on weekends, and the earlier you do anything on a weekday the less crowded it is.

I don't find the crowds worth worrying about, and the weather makes everything OK!

How do you hate this?
