We were in Reddington Shores, loved it, but hated the fact that the cost of wintering there is so expensive that people rent for just one week at a time, so people are coming and going constantly. Plus the dreaded Spring Break ................ ugh! Our friends rent in Naples, off the beach, on a golf course that is too expensive for them to play, for $5,000 a month!
I also felt the traffic was horrible. Traffic in TV is nothing compared to the areas you mentioned.
