IMO the startling increase in high-density developments are leading to the demise of the 30-A area. We are already seeing traffic congestion, people fighting over space on the beach, beach crowding leading to more crap on the beach, problems with not enough beach accesses, parking problems at beach accesses, neighborhoods becoming gated communities to keep people from using their private property as a public beach access, etc. Like I said on another thread, it's not the 30-A of five years ago. We have less beach and more people. I don't see the size of the beach increasing any time soon, but as long as the board of county commissioners continues to approve high-density developments, the number of people and vehicles will continue to increase. A two-lane road like 30-A can only handle so many vehicles before it reaches its saturation point.

But wait!....There's more!! We've still got the International Airport, Minnie-Disney and Joe-Bob's On-Again-Off-Again Animal Park to factor in!
Hang on to your wigs and keys...it's gonna be an interesting ride. Better pitch your tent on the beach today to ensure you've got a space.
