SoWal members,
My wife Aubrey and I are seriously considering relocating to the SoWal area (especially 30-A). We both have vacationed in SoWal since we were little and we just had our destination wedding in Seaside in June. We need your help and expertise! We need some answers to questions that we are having a hard time finding out the answers to.
What is the job market like in SoWal? We currently live in Nashville, Tennessee and the job market is not great. We both have Bachelor degrees, mine is in Business Administration with an emphasis in Music and Entertainment and her's is in Physical Education. She is a licensed teacher and currently works in a pre-school. I currently own my own web design company (you may have seen me posting about it recently!) but I also work retail for additional income.
She would obviously be looking for a teaching job, including pre-school. She could also be a personal trainer as soon as she gets her license. I would be looking for a business administration related profession in retail or other places. The traditional job search sites show little in South Walton.
The other issue would be housing. We currently rent a 700 square foot one bedroom apartment and pay $825 plus utilities. We would be looking to rent and would need to stay in a similar price range. We certainly would want to be on 30-A if at all possible.
We would appreciate your help with any of the above questions. We see so many people moving to the area on this forum and it really is a dream of ours to join the community!
Thanks for your help!
Sincerely,
Chris
