There are lots of things to see and do in that area, but it is not a retirement community and cannot be compared to this. My son wants to get old enough to move here! And so does my other son who is looking to move to Florida. My late husband and I looked within a two hour drive from Viera for a retirement community and nothing but nothing compares to this. It is a reirement city with all the amenities and services that infers. BTW, my son teaches at Satellite Beach High.
I appreciate your input. It is amazing, but I knew someone on TOTV would answer me before Viera's staff ever did. Thank you.

We lived in Satellite Beach for twelve months in 1972/73.
Our daughter began kindergarten on Patrick Air Force Base.
We returned to Vermont after that and stayed put while she and her brother went all through school up here........our son was a toddler back then. I have pictures of him at some little zoo nearby , with the one armed monkey.

They were young but still remember the coral on Satellite Beach which was virtually empty back then..........and the seashells.
