Hello. We are planning to move to the Fort Pierce/Vero Beach area from Raleigh NC sometime in the coming year. So I really appreciate your videos on the treasure coast. Your camera quality and work is quite nice. I do have one suggestion tho…. for you and many other location Vloggers… It’s Simple… just turned the camera around so that it faces out and the listener can be enjoying the scenery and views while you’re talking. You don’t even have to be specifically describing the view. Just let the people watching have more visual experience of the actual locations while you’re sharing the general information. I find this happens most of the time with bloggers… 90% of the video is watching a talking head talk about a location rather than seeing the actual location. Please don’t take offense. You have a fine looking talking head, but most interested parties would like to see other things. I find the majority of locations voggers make this mistake. So… just Point the camera out towards the view, whether you’re driving along or walking a beach or touring the town areas You can cover all the information and offer a more satisfying visual experience. Think about it … perhaps you can be the example of a better way Thanks!
@@christasantoni7121 thanks for your insight! I’ll definitely try to show more with the camera the other way! Eventually I would love to try flying a drone around and showing the area that way too. I’ll let you in on a trade secret though. I can’t speak for the other vloggers, but for me as a realtor showing my face a lot is strategy that I learned in my UA-cam courses. It helps the viewers feel more comfortable with me and less hesitant to reach out to me to buy or sell here in the area. I do understand where you’re coming from though and I will try to flip the camera around more!
Lived here for 54 years its all old news now not like it used to be nowhere near it this area where this video is being filmed during late evening is known for mosquitoes and a little critter we call noSeeums you very rarely see them but you feel their bite and they love to bite people from up north for some reason fort Pierce is my home I've explored every inch some favorite spots now are laid over by pavement or parking lots we are close to the space Coast where we can observe every rocket being launched from the cape and we're smack Dad in the middle of the treasure Coast our place is not meant for everyone but it's special to us sometimes we struggle with hurricanes and tornadoes which has gotten progressively worse but it's our chosen way of life
How about across the bridge by the beach area. Lots of places to eat. Tiki bars and other restaurants. How is living on the east side of the bridge. Thumb Point community for example?
You’re correct! In this video I was focusing on the mainland part of Fort Pierce as opposed to the Hutchinson Island part as they are fairly different. There are great places to eat there on the Island, and I love the beachy, laid back, friendly feel of Thumb Point! I actually have a video going over the pros and cons of living in that area
East of the US-1 is really nice, especially along the Indian River Drive and on Hutchinson Island! There are some absolutely beautiful old homes throughout West of the US-1 also. Some of them are diamonds in the rough just waiting on the right homeowner to come along and restore them to their former glory!
@@TreasureCoastLife Besides living east of US 1 is really nice. How is the living North Ft Pierce and South Ft Pierce?? I've heard the middle is not so great
@@erical5544I like Fort Pierce South, and I’m gonna say that the middle and North are an acquired taste. Mostly older smaller homes with little pockets of larger homes. Some might say it looks rough but they have kind of a fun Caribbean feel to the neighborhoods. If you go a little further north you have Lakewood Park which is one of my favorite places!
What about on the st Lucie River just west of white city? Looking at properties on the river. How is it around there? I’m moving from Fort Lauderdale where I lived my entire life looking for somewhere not as crowded. Also looks like flood zone in the area around st Lucie River near white city. Is that an issue?
It’s beautiful there! Most of the neighborhoods have the large oak trees with Spanish moss hanging from them. It’s very picturesque southern feeling. As an added bonus the White City Park there is probably our favorite park in the area. Beautiful park, good fishing, and a free boat ramp. Living on a river or close to it will put you at risk of a storm surge, usually for a category 3 hurricane or larger. Unfortunately that’s the risk of living on an ocean access river. Midway road, which runs through White City, is also starting to see some development now which is good for the area too. I hope this helps! Feel free to call me to learn more 8066789067
If you’re looking for a good inspection company to check out your house views mercury home inspections in fort Pierce ..Ask for Doug and he will make sure your golden all around.
What type of nurse are you? Lawnwood is the regional trauma center and the only hospital in Fort Pierce. My wife is an ICU nurse at Cleveland Clinic Tradition in Port St Lucie and she loves it there! There is also St Lucie Hospital nearby in Port St Lucie
I lived there in early 70s , parents had restaurant on orange Ave. Dad always said its the asshole of the world lol . He had option to open restaurant in stuart or ft pierce. He made the wrong choice. We had alot of fun there in the 70s , it was awesome .
Don't do it, Police dept o. Verge of shutting down. Don't try PSl unless you like hoa rules because that there new stance. Everything must be out of sight, grass not cut each week they write you up.
It definitely depends on which county and city you’re in, but on average Florida has slightly lower property taxes than California. At least that’s what every source I looked up said
Right it’s a jungle in south Florida traffic is a nightmare- crime is even worse. As for fort Pierce high crime- nice areas for the rich - really not a family city nothing here to do for the youth- no museums- really for the retired!

What’s the safety rating? I hear Fort Pierce has a 7/10 crime rate. That’s pretty high. That area looks beautiful though.

If you're thinking about Fort Pierce, stay east of Route 1.
East of the US-1 is really nice, especially along the Indian River Drive and on Hutchinson Island!
There are some absolutely beautiful old homes throughout West of the US-1 also. Some of them are diamonds in the rough just waiting on the right homeowner to come along and restore them to their former glory!
North or South??
@@erical5544 I don’t understand, North or South what?

Swift Grill - great restaurant option fresh food amazing desserts
I’ll have to try it out, thanks for the recommendation!

S Indian River Dr homes are 20-35ft above sea level.. No flood zone.. Only spot on east coast that is on water and doesn't have to worry about floods
Don't forget to mention Indian River Drive is one of the most scenic streets in the area too!@@mikenicee
What about the crime rate?
If you’re looking for a good inspection company to check out your house views mercury home inspections in fort Pierce ..Ask for Doug and he will make sure your golden all around.
Thank you for commenting! It’s good to know about good inspectors in the area!
Best hospitals for Nurses in Ft Pierce?
What type of nurse are you? Lawnwood is the regional trauma center and the only hospital in Fort Pierce. My wife is an ICU nurse at Cleveland Clinic Tradition in Port St Lucie and she loves it there! There is also St Lucie Hospital nearby in Port St Lucie

The first Burger King I ever went to was in Ft Pierce. Delicious burgers. 😄
That's awesome, you should try some of the new delicious restaurants they have now
LOL
Ft Pierce is suffering from cowboy and grapefruit hangover 😢 And the North side was destroyed by the crack era
Don't do it,
Police dept o. Verge of shutting down.

California has lower property taxes
It definitely depends on which county and city you’re in, but on average Florida has slightly lower property taxes than California. At least that’s what every source I looked up said
I prefer Hallandale beach Florida beautiful city good beaches and restaurants and growing businesses and communities, and good night life.🇺🇸🫡
Right it’s a jungle in south Florida traffic is a nightmare- crime is even worse. As for fort Pierce high crime- nice areas for the rich - really not a family city nothing here to do for the youth- no museums- really for the retired!
@@onelovespirit8766 that’s why I move to Hallandale Beach it’s a lot of sports camp for the kids.
Kids make their own recreation...Water sports, canoeing, beach, river, They don't need adults to tell them how to have fun. @@onelovespirit8766
