We lived in Tampa for many years before moving here.
Went to Lakewood Ranch many times.

Traffic is bad, taxes are high, way too congested.

It’s located in Bradenton which has quite a bit of crime.

The only thing that we liked was it was near Siesta Key
which is our favorite beach.

After living for almost 20 yrs. in Tampa with so many hurricane scares we decided in our old age we didn’t
want to be that close to the coast.
