    Palm Coast used to be affordable. Homes for rent used to be $800 a month and new homes on average used to be $125. Now prices have tripled. And it became highly congested with tons of traffic. Paradise has been destroyed but it is very clean and beautiful there. It caters to wealthy folks.

    Hi! I've been in Palm Coast for 32 years!! I am a Daytona Beach native; born and raised and schooled in Daytona. I moved to NYC as a very young adult and lived there, Indianapolis, Memphis, and Atlanta. I moved back to Florida with my family in 1992 and we ended up in Palm Coast. My husband and I have raised our 3 kids here and our church family is here. The exit to the beach on 100 from I95 is the shortest exit to the Atlantic Ocean on the entire interstate 95, from Maine to Key West. Palm Coast government sorta acts like an HOA, but that isn't always bad. I've forgotten more about Palm Coast than y'all have time for!! LOLs!! Just kidding, but it has been a really good place to raise our family, and they all want to come back here! Now that SR 100 is getting so many business places, there are more options in Palm Coast-- we don't always have to go to Daytona or StAug to shop or get services. We are getting TOO MANY HOUSES and apartment buildings and where the heck are all these people coming from? It's not only the NYC-NJ area, anymore!

    At 7:06 you described everything at Hammock Beach Resort, but called it Hammock Dunes which is a private gated community with a private golf club. The 2 facilities are essentially next to each other (each have an ocean course and an inland course), but one is private and the other is a hotel.

    • @LIVINGINSTAUGUSTINE
      @LIVINGINSTAUGUSTINE  7 месяцев назад

      Thank you for correcting me. I get them switched up a bunch when talking. Why they would name them so similar and put them right across the street from each other I'll never know.

    Have lived in Palm Coast for 10 years and it used to be a charming, quiet beach town. I guess it still is but for how much longer? With all the building how much longer before Palm Coast becomes just like all the other overcrowded beach town that we avoided moving to? Some expansion is fine but once you go too far, you can’t go back.

    • @LIVINGINSTAUGUSTINE
      @LIVINGINSTAUGUSTINE  4 месяца назад +1

      People want to live close to the beach and the intracoastal. Palm Coast and many areas of Florida are changing. There isn't much you can do about it.
      If you don't build then the prices would go even higher. A double edged sword for sure

    One slight mistake that you near the end of the video, you said Hammock Dunes is luxury resort on the ocean. You meant Hammock Beach is the resort, not Hammock Dunes. Hammock Dunes is totally private.

    Please note: the entire town is run like an HOA that controls everything to enforce a single lifestyle. It's very frustrating to like half the citizenry. Heavy fines for just about anything, and if you have a car for work, RV, or boat it can't be in your driveway. Don't fall in love with the greenery, because it will be rezoned and plowed for condos over night.
    It's a great location with lovely parks. Flagler Beach next door is a nice, calm area, but it is going to be overwhelmed by tourism in the next two years because of a Margaritaville hotel. I work from home and enjoy some things about it, but I don't love the control the government keeps over the town. Also, the new builds are being built higher than the houses next to them, so tenured citizens are getting their houses and yards flooded by water run off.
