I work in a multi office Opthalmologist practice and it was so funny to me when new patients called in back in Feb or even March and asked for an appt. We were booking out at that point for late may for most Drs and a couple for June to aug. Then they'd say oh I need to get in before I leave in April. This seasons been crazy. Don't get me started on the lack of workers making this even worse. And the drivers. Like if you don't need to be on the road between 7-8am and 4-6 then please don't. It sucks having to give myself and hour to get to and from work when it's only 25 min away.
Thanks for commenting!
So much great information. Thank you! Hopefully will be a new resident soon!
Congrats Andrea!! Thanks for commenting.
That halloween tip was huge. We were already looking in SW CC but that secured it for us. Though we aren't planning to move for at least a year maybe 2, what do you see the housing market doing in CC over the next few years as far as price?
Great video Marc! Super interesting fact about the streets!
Kobe. Thanks for the comment. Yea it takes a while to figure out but easy once you get it.
Super video. Keep them coming!
Thanks for the positive comment and support!
Very useful info and good quality videos! Looking forward to call you very soon. We have our eyes on Fort Myers, Estero or Cape Coral.
Thanks so much for the kind words and support :). I’d love to help and look forward to hearing from you and helping however I can!
awesome video !! thx
Thanks for the positive comment!
You have one of the better sets I've seen. Not to mention your video was extremely helpful. What are those lights back lighting the shelf decor?
Thanks Greyson! I appreciate the positive comment. The lights I use on the bookshelf are Ulanzi VL49 lights. Great little lights and awesome battery life. Let me know if I can ever be of assistance to you.
@@livingincapecoral thank you!
Great info!
You can talk about the internet too, at north it's a disaster. Thank you 💓
I’ve heard that as well. I have Xfinity where I am and have been happy but I’ve heard CenturyLink is not as fast or reliable in the North Cape.
Great video! Can I ask which video tools you use? The production on this is incredibly slick.
Thanks for the positive comment and feedback! I do all of my own editing and use Final Cut Pro X. Filmed on a Sony A7iii.
@@livingincapecoral - cool - thanks! You (or your staff) do some very powerful things with your video and it brings out the messaging extremely well. I'm using iMovie right now, but only doing videos for a hobby. Considering making the leap to Final Cut but worried about the complexity. Time will tell. Thanks for the response
Sooo crowded in the Cape and numberous Recovery homes mixed in neighborhoods and don’t tell people and lots of traffic I am choosing Bradenton or Sarasota.
Pam. Thanks for commenting. Good luck. My aunt lives in Bradenton and likes it there. Let me know if I can ever be of assistance to you!
Thanks for another great upload. Just curious. I noticed you can't get a direct flight from Fort Myers Airport or PGD to Miami or Fort Lauderdale. Why is this? My wife and I love traveling to the Bahamas and in order to get there you have to flight out of Miami, which means you have to take Fort Myers to Charlotte, then Charlotte all the way back down to Miami. It seems like it would have been so much easier to just go direct to Miami from Fort Myers.
Our eco system is fragile. Learn about nutrient rich water - causes of blue green algae & red tide. You don’t need to fertilize because of the irritation water used. There is also a fertilizer ban during rainy season. Grass clippings aren’t not allowed to be dumped in the canals.
Great points. Thanks for commenting, and let me know if I can be of assistance to you in the future
Cape Coral is great close to the water, but gets a bit sketchy the more Inland you go.
Thanks for commenting. Let me know if I can ever be of assistance to you.
If you think Cape Coral gets sketchy anywhere then you belong in a safe plastic bubble
@@rekeembelac1684 Well, you are right about one thing, anyplace in Cape coral is better than Lehigh Acres.
I have one question. Are iguanas a big problem in Cape Coral? 🙂
Not so much a ‘problem’ here but we do have plenty around. They are an in invasive species though. The biggest issue they really cause in this city is when they dig behind sea walls on waterfront homes. This creates a void behind the sea wall and the earth and can cause additional stress on the concrete which can cause damage to the sea wall itself. Best practice if you have a sea wall is to do a walk by visual inspection from time to time to make sure you don’t see any digging or holes behind the sea wall. I personally enjoy seeing them around but do realize they can be a problem. Thanks for watching and commenting!
They are everywhere!! Hundreds
I've been in Cape Coral for 15 years and I never saw one .
How's the water there???? Considering moving.
Hi Tim. Are you asking about the drinking water? I drink mine through the filter on my refrigerator and it’s pretty good. Not that great right out of the tap. That goes for city and well.
Good Video ... But you left out how EXPENSIVE any HVAC installation/service is. Any A/C problem is 3X more expensive than anywhere else in the U.S. What usually cost $3K in the Midwest will cost you $7-9K in Cape Coral. FACT
Thanks for the insight on this Coleman.
Here's my take on living in Florida - the hot humid weather is the good part:
Health care is terrible. It is almost impossible to find decent health care providers. Health insurance is a joke. I would strongly suggest that you see health care providers in the north including dental care.
Florida is a very superficial culture, especially in Orlando. It's a great place for mainstream but don't count on intellectual stimulation.
Florida is halfway between the United States and a third world country. Services are not good, schools are poor, and customer service is almost non- existent.
Floridians are friendly but not helpful, you are on your own. The vast influx of northerners moving into Florida probably has something to do with the total lack of community.
Florida is very expensive (except maybe for New Yorkers). Don't move to Florida to avoid state income tax. The cost of living is very high, especially for housing.
If you are planning on renting, landlords will push you out after your first tenancy because they can to someone else at a much higher rate. (Rent prices are increasing at 28% in Florida)
Wish I had known these things before I moved here, I would have chosen another state.
Terry. Thanks for the comment and for sharing your experience.
So leave...
Sounds like Heaven on Earth! I lived there and the health care at the entry level (i.e. emergency room) was really bad. You may as well be in the jungle getting a morphine shot and told to keep running and try not to die. Now, above that, if you need a specialist, (i.e. plastic surgeon, physical therapy etc.) it is much better. As for intellectual, you do get the sense that the place is built for entertainment, not going to the chess club meetup. You seriously need to be aware, the place is built for docking boats. Don't have a boat, or orbit your life around boating? Just be aware, you are on that universe, and there is a huge world that does not concern you and is not built for your pleasure. When I was there, it was dirt cheap to live, but wages were super low to match. I knew people working 2 jobs. I have not seen that in the 30+ years since then. But again, people were doing it. You could find a single mom supporting multiple kids on waitress money. Not now. So I can't even imagine going there now, without a massive bank roll, or a new job paying 25% more than I make now. Basically, I would say the state is shaping itself more like a tourist resort than a regular "Joe lunch bucket" state, and that's the message i was always given back in the day, that the place really doesn't have time to cultivate an upwardly mobile work force. It is dog-eat-dog, and if you can't hack it, back to Rochester to operate the drill press. Thanks.
Also if you have been married more than once, you need proof of who you are. All marriage licenses, and divorce papers. From maiden name to current married name. Men don't need this. Only women.
Great point! I think I overheard someone having that exact same issue while I was there getting mine and forgot to add it to the list. Awesome addition! Thanks 😊
