Toots, I don't think I phrased my reply well and I certainly don't refute the facts as you have stated above re: SoWal. MOF, I embrace them and that is the curiosity, the fact that community and all the features you mention can be found in many, many places where the costs are less and the densities of people are as well.
If you were to find a place that had all the qualities you describe, everything you like about SoWal, and was both less expensive and much more private in living space, would you move?
You didn't answer the question but moving on...SoWal compared to many other places is quite expensive for instance the Cape San Blas area which is nestled into St. Joseph Aquatic Preserve and State Land Preserve. The beaches are much wider (overall), the people are friendly as is possible; SoWal has no lock on any of what you have mentioned and you pay a dear price in cost of housing, less natural environ and much, much higher density living.well, I happen to have a very private place to live, plenty of wooded property all around me, and I don't know what's more expensive about living here than anywhere else. maybe groceries are more expensive (so I hear). gas is more here than other areas to the north. dining can be expensive, sure. but we're cooks and prefer to dine in mostly. yes, a glass of wine at seaside is about $12 (and it's half full). but, we know where to go and enjoy our own vino, and do so quite often, at the beach or on the bay, or down the street at jdargs house...
I think you have to live here to really experience the amazing community feel, the incredible people, and especially the beautiful natural environment all around us.
the only reason some folks may not quite like sowal is they may feel it doesn't offer enough to do as far as cultural events and such. some folks like the big city life. but for me, I like the smaller community. heck, this place is hardly big enough to be called a town yet. that's what I like.
