We had bermuda in North Carolina. Really did well with the sandier soil there. Never had any issues with pest, of course we took care of the yard ourselves as we will here when we move into the new home. Dont like lawn services that spray who knows what on the yard.

One thing though is bermuda can be expensive for additional seeding.
