      I’ve only been twice, a quarter century apart. I’m looking to relocate from PA and given the improvement I’ve identified it on my short list of destinations. I think it has the most upside on the south-central east coast, while having the infrastructure to support growth. Don’t see many similar opportunities within the tropical portion of FL. Plus under 1.5-2hrs to Miami, Tampa, Orlando. They are building a large new resort hotel, considering commercial flight out of treasure coast intl, and adding a lot of jobs on the waterfront. Huge push by the city for redevelopment.

      Our videos are usually titled something like, “The Best Things to do….” in a particular town. None of our videos claim to be a full review or tour of any town, but just a list and review of the best attractions we can find.
      We try to focus on the positive aspects of any place that we go. We don’t see the benefit of lifting up and highlighting negativity.
      There are certainly other videos that focus on the negative aspects of these towns, and a wise person may look at both in order to get a full picture.
