    "My commute has moderate traffic in the afternoon when I go to work up near Crestview but at about midnight when I get off work, there is little to no traffic all the way down 85 to my house in Ocean City. There is no sidewalks and trash truck drivers don’t take forever to pick up garbage on trash day. There’s not much of a youth presence in the area but regardless it’s a pretty quiet area and everybody keeps to themselves. "

    "Small yards, and poor infrastructure lead to fences faking over in harsh storms. Local shelters are packed and sending lost dogs out of area."

    "Poorly maintained, all local funding goes to Destin and beyond, area is growing faster than resources can be allocated to already existing issues, infrastructure is poorly maintained."

    "It’s just as much “home” as Fort Walton. They’re extremely close, and everyone identifies with the towns the same. Everyone knows everyone in some way or another. It’s a nice town that’s close to the beach. "

    "The Colony Estates area has trees, single family homes, and quiet streets. It is centrally located in greater Fort Walton Beach, so it is only a short drive to shopping and restaurants. The local elementary school is less than a mile away. "
