    "I don’t actually have one. I work from home, but if you walk out of the development, there is a bus stop not too far away if you don’t have a car. Most things are within 20 minutes away from here."

    " I live in the Meadows, just a few minutes from this home which was my family home where I raised my children. It is a rental. This area is growing fast. The new University Pkwy. shopping mall is a big plus. The entire area has almost every top store to shop at now. Doctors and medical needs have come to this area too. No more driving to the Ssta Mem Hospital area. Dr's Hospital has brought many doctors to this area. I have lived in this area since 1982 and have watched it grow. Home prices will go up because of all the new stores opening and so many other needs for shopping are now here. This is a quiet neighborhood, speed limit is 25 mph. Safe for kids, pets and nice walks in the evenings. It is an affordable neighborhood to rent or buy in."

They are often used for yoga, jazzercise and other classes and programs. We love the family and pet friendly spirit of the neighborhood. On the weekends there are always a few great yard sales, too!"

    "This neighborhood is a bit of a hidden gem, forgotten by the new massive communities with beige colored houses as far as the eye can see. There is real character here in the tall oak lined streets and numerous lakes. Also, the community park, cared for by the county, is a tremendous feature. Everyone must drive through this neighborhood at some point in there Sarasota travels."

    "Excellent location. Secluded, Large lots, very well kept homes. Very pet friendly. One mile to Sarasota Christian School, (Pre-k thru 12th grade) within three miles of Brentwood Elementary, Bishop Nevin's/ St. Martha's, and McIntosh Middle. Within five miles of Tatum Elementary and Cardinal Mooney High School. Convenient to shopping, (Target, Publix, Home Depot, Lowes, Beall's, Burlington Coat Factory, etc., etc.!) and fast food, restaurants, Colonial Oaks Park, and the Celery Fields. Easy access to I75. This is close to it all, yet very quiet and secluded neighborhood. No through traffic. Only five minutes to Doctor's Hospital and ten to fifteen minutes to Sarasota Memorial Hospital. Like I said, close to everything! Kids in neighborhood range in age from six to young college age. Incredibly nice and friendly neighbors. "
