    "A piece of paradise. Everything is in walking and biking distance. The island has everything from parks, local restaurants, beaches, the jetty, festivals, a library, an art center, a local museum, city basketball, tennis, pickleball, and shuffleboard courts, a children's splash pad, churches, a hospital, and a grocery store. It also has and elementary, middle, and high school where kids can bike to school. At the downtown gazebo there are public concerts and there are often downtown festivals. Every Saturday there's a farmer's market in front of the firehouse. It's golf cart and bike friendly with the famous legacy trail bike trail. You can visit the public beaches, fish from the city pier or jetty, or venture out for an isolated stroll along Casperson's beach, known as the shark's tooth capital of the world. Botique shops, ice cream shops, and local restraunts provide plenty to do year round. Perfect for families or retires. "

And I love having a supermarket, drug store, banks, post office, restaurants, art and exercise classes, theatrical and musical performances, and the beach all within easy walking distance. A very strong sense of community, with fun holiday parades and festivals throughout the year. Dogs are welcome at sidewalk cafes and there’s even a dedicated Dog Beach where dogs can run free and swim."
