You need to mentioned how insanely expensive the cost of living is in West Palm. I've lived here for 18 years and am being priced our with a salary of $150,000.
hello as a former res of wpb all I can say is have plenty of $$ if you want to live there! what you save in taxes you'll spend it on everything else! crime is high also (there are certain city's & parts of town to avoid!) pb county is overpopulated so watch your back and prepare to wait in line!
Hi , thank you for your video. I’m planning to move to WPB in August. How is living around o’sheas Irish pub on clematis street. Most importantly how noisy is the train in that area?
Not sure how it’s like living around the pub but Clematis street gets busy during the day and can get loud at night due to nightlife. The train is not really a factor. You get used to it
Jonathan, how far do you agree or disagree with people like Jerry Pinkas who see the condo and real estate situation in South Florida facing collapse because of the stronger requirements for reserve funds, increased taxes, congestion and the inability of infrastructure to keep up with population influx, etc.? And the recent increase of movement from southern Florida to the Carolinas?
I agree with a lot of what Jerry Pinkas says but I feel just like Michael Bordenaro they exaggerate the data and news for their gain because people love negativity and gravitate towards videos that are all doom and gloom. That’s how both their channels exploded. With that being said, the condo market here is in a very tough situation due to insurance, assessments and lack of reserves. The single family and townhome market is holding up better and right now it’s a beauty pageant and bidding war.. only the best looking and best priced homes are selling. All the rest is sitting and reducing their prices. Florida to the Carolinas has always been a thing so nothing new there.
I love them too!! Yes renovations have to meet the standards of the historic preservation program. For more info: www.wpb.org/government/development-services/planning-and-zoning/historic-preservation
I live in these old districts, you speak of. I live in Northwood. And nobody’s buying a house and these districts for under $1 million. L O L and the gated communities and condos charged so much in fees you could expect your monthly payment to almost double.year after year Florida condos are no longer a good idea. The condo fees were out of this world. The good times are over. And in traffic is similar to Los Angeles these days.
I’m very familiar with Northwood. Prices in all of the historic districts have increased significantly. There are some still under 1m that are being sold. Condos fees have gotten out of control. Traffic isn’t like LA at all but South Florida has gotten overcrowded in many areas.
This is a very different scene from another West Palm Beach video tour I just watched. I guess they were touring the hood part. I should just visit and see for myself.
There's definitely hood parts in almost every South Florida city (especially large cities) and many times those neighborhoods surround wealthy areas with mega mansions. Driving around and seeing for yourself is your best bet. Thanks for watching!
West palm beach is already starting to become expensive to live. I do not believe there no affordable places in west palm beach. I am born and raised from Miami but I lived in west palm beach. The next couple of years is going to be horrible to live in South Florida. Everyone had their different opinions about west palm beach but honestly I do believe there better places than west palm beach and Florida. There is not a lot of job opportunities in west palm beach to be honest.
@@KaonashiJPI totally agree with you. To live in places like South Florida you need to make a great stable income and there is no affordable housing I been in South Florida my whole life I have not seen that at all. Their is not a lot of job opportunities in west palm beach with that other experiences. Plus if you are ready to deal with hot weather all year round and if you are ready to deal with hurricane seasons every year then you can move there in Florida but make sure you have good coverage for insurance for your house.
It’s gotten to that point now that South Florida has gotten too expensive for many to live and unfortunately have to move away. There’s hardly any affordable housing and all the new construction is luxury. There are industries that pay well that I mention in my videos but for the most part, I agree with alot of what you said
@@LIVSouthFlorida I agree the housing and rental market is horrible in South Florida. You definitely have to make a great income to afford a great house or at least a decent apartment. Plus it is at least 7,000 a week people are moving to Florida and the traffic is getting more worse. I am guessing in the next couple of years it will be horrible to live in Florida. I am from Miami and I have seen how bad the traffic is getting down there. The housing and rental market is bad down in Miami too.
Two mentions of trump so far. Had to turn off the Video. There has to be so many more interesting things to say about WPB especially bc trump or his golf course aren’t in the City limits of West Palm Beach
Don’t be a hater, he did mentioned lots of things to do in WPB as well as in the AREA. I would say, that’s more than the previous or current presidents can show 😂😂

I've watched a lot of videos about moving to S. Florida and this is one of the best! Thanks for the info and keep doing what you're doing!
Thanks for watching! That means a lot 🙏
Yes! Your videos are very professional. I wish there were more videos for resources for Seniors on fixed incomes. They love living and thriving too.😊
Great video, so informative! Amazing!!! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video sir 👍 crushed it
Thank you!! I appreciate it 🙏🏼
I moved to West Palm Beach in 2020, WPB has a nice downtown!
It really does! Cool to see the WPB transformation

Everything has gotten expensive and for many unaffordable
Thorough. Give s a good first glance, which one can delve into for more info. Solid vid!
Thanks! It's just a starter into WPB. I'm planning on making a more thorough video on location in the future.

If am moving to South Florida Miami is the number 1 spot than Broward County, Hallandale Beach.❤
To each their own. I see why Miami but personally it’s too crowded for me and the traffic is horrible.
Wonderful video, thank you.
Great video! This is my sign 🌴 I’m ready to leave the snow and cold weather 8 months out the year smh🥶
Thank you! That means a lot. Come on down to the sunshine state where it’s warm and beautiful all year round ☀️🌴🏖️😎
Great video! I enjoyed watching and learning about the area.
Thanks for watching! Stay tuned for more 👀
Nice vlog, very informative. Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Coming down next month for vacation for a week. I would love to permanently relocate
Let me know if you have any questions about the area when you come to visit. I hope you have a great time here!
Love it! Great video!!
Thank you!! 😎🫶🏼
Can you please make a video where you compare West Palm Beach and Boca Raton ?
Yes, I have it on the list of videos to make. Make sure to subscribe and keep an eye out. 👀

@@LIVSouthFlorida Then how are potential new arrivals in Florida even in the Palm Beach area (or elsewhere) supposed to deal with the situation?
Loving the historic homes, but wondering if renovations are a huge hassle with regulations?
I love them too!! Yes renovations have to meet the standards of the historic preservation program.

@@LIVSouthFloridanot even close to LA traffic but I agree on the fees wow 😮
could you please recommend an itinerary for 10 days around Miami?
That’s a tough one. I would Google it. There’s so much to see and do in Miami
Thanks for considering the vegans. Great video. 👍
I prefer Hallandale beach Florida beautiful city good beaches and restaurants and growing businesses and communities, and good night life.❤
Are you editing these videos on your own?
Yes I am
If I were still a palm beach county resident (Riviera Beach) I would support Rick Bradshaw sheriff palm beach county.
He’s the man
Great video!
Thank you 🙏
Tampa is in Hillsborough County, not Lee County.. Ft Myers/Cape Coral are in Lee County.
You're right. Good catch

What are your thoughts about the "new" downtown area? Ie:crime. I am thinking about locating there. Thanks!
This is a wild thing to say but do you know anyone who can help me get some bud in south Florida lolllll??
You're wild! I'm certain you won't have a hard time finding it in South Florida! Thanks for watching!
Lee County is not in Tampa
You’re right. I meant to say Hillsborough

The economy is made up off the hospitality industry…so bad.

I'm looking at rentals in West Palm Beach. The areas I'm looking at all have HIGH crime stats. What areas are safer to live in?
Depends on where you want to live. Do you need to be in WPB? Text me 561-609-1345 if you have questions.
You’ll need a lot of money to be in a “safe” area. It’s too crazy here. Even nice areas of downtown are full of drug problems and homelessness.
Don't
We are full!!!!!!

Yah I wouldn’t move there if I were you..
Hurricanes!!Gators!! Don’t listen to ambitious real estate agents!!!!
It's really not that bad and I AM ambitious but also truthful and tell it how it is.
Please go to California or something!!!!!
Rocco’s taco is garbage
I disagree. I think it's great and many would agree
