I lived in Panama City from 2004 to 2018 (ironically, I left the week before Hurricane Michael). As of 2023, it has come back tremendously, but the signs of the storm such as the bent-over trees are still there.
You didn't notice the missing trees and landmarks? The fact that the City Marina was closed? It's true, this video only covered Panama City and westward, while the most substantial damage was to the east. Too bad Mike didn't travel east instead. High quality driving video, Mike. I wish you'd done the eastern burgs, Springfield, Callaway, Parker, Millville.
@@Peachsnowcone Yeah, Panama City wasn't hurt too bad. Now, Springfield, Callaway, Parker, Millville...that's another matter. Even Panama City proper will take decades to return to normal. So many ancient trees were destroyed. Panama City has far fewer trees than it did, and that was one of the nicest things about it. Have you ever been to The Cove? Barely recognizable.
Looking beautiful as always when me and my mom get out of the house and go downtown.apparently they shutted down the stake and shake near the best buy. I dont know why exactly
Panama city was a really beautiful city with some of the prettiest trees you've ever seen. Not so now it has been estimated that we lost 80% of our tree canopy. Last couple summers have been hotter than I can remember and I have lived here all my life. It's surely not the and still looks depressing... You were on beach drive BTW that road took you to Beck ave in St. Andrews...
Great video Florida Mike keep it up man hey Panama City is where one of my friends live and this city pretty close to the coast of Florida it's not too far from Pensacola I believe
Panama City is spread out .There is a lot of little area s of cities like Callaway and Springfield and Lynn Haven and st. Andrews and Parker in Panama city.most of these videos go through the same areas again and again.They never go down 23 rd street never go 77 never go 15 the st or 11th st.We find most people do these try and show the bad areas like they just want to show us in a bad light.We have a real nice town really spread out over a large area
@@adamjames936 Recently moved up north to Tennessee. Needed more acess to nature/outdoors and the cooler falls/winters. Recommend moving down there from Oregon, if you don't mind high humidity and almost a never ending summer. I'd recommend the cove neighborhood area in pc, or move farther west along the coast to Santa Rosa area, panama city beach is very very tourist filled and kids partying alot. go across the bridge to panama city and it's where the locals/everyday working people mostly live now, not touristy over there. I lived in the cove area, which was nice area, low crime, clean and walkable area and close to some not very busy beach/swim spots nearby along (West Beach Drive aka hwy 98) overall panama city beach (beach side) is expensive and tourist filled except during winter, across the bridge (city side) where alot of the jobs are, also just locals, less money, and more run down in a lot a places, some section of city are gang areas and alot of the city/neighborhoods are still run down from the last hurricane years ago. and farther west you go of panama city beach, Starting at city of Rosemary beach everything gets gets nice, cleaner, less crime and less crowded beaches and couple state parks/forests like Point Washington State forest. Santa Rosa beach, rosemary beach, seacrest, seaside are nice areas to live. Stay out of Springfield, Parker, Calloway, areas lots of crime,drugs,gangs, and very trashy areas ( where I worked everyday for my job), the cove and downtown panama city areas are the beast places to live if you are thinking about being on panama city side. Coming from Oregon everything will seem much cheaper, which is nice. cheers
I live in Callaway, east of Panama City. I've spent time in Oregon (3 weeks). It blows my mind that anyone would trade the Pacific Northwest Coast for THIS???
I didn’t. I was pretty exhausted after this one from sitting in the traffic that I was about ready to be done filming for the day. I’ll definitely check out that area next time.
This is bull. My home town and you and drive though red lights. Breeze right by the oldest drive-in in town (Talley-Ho) (my Momma worked there in the 50s). Don't even look at the oldest high school in town (Bay High). Miss the most beautiful part of town (Beach Dr). I quit watching. Do a better video of the REAL city. What is the point of your video? Its certainly not showing Panama City. 😡

I love driving videos so much but watching panama city makes me homesick! Thank you for making them♥️

@@Vector_Ze I disagree, and yes even now it’s damaged but we’ve improved a lot. Honestly seeing the old mall go down was rough.
@@Peachsnowcone Dang girl, you can't disagree with hard facts. But, you be you.
Great job! I've went to Panama City in 2016 and again in 2019

There used to be a lot more trees before Hurricane Michael came through. The city is definitely coming back though.
The people, their houses and businesses are recovering. The trees will take a generation or more.

Great video Mike Panama City is a nice city
No doubt!
@@MileageMikeTravels Have a good night Mileage Mike!
I'll be ready for another one.
Why didn’t you run the red light too?
I used to live on West Beach Drive so this was fun to watch
Nice. Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video!
Thanks!
Go beach Dr. Ride downtown and through the cove.Go down 98 .People take the old ways.Try and make it look bad.I don't know why???
Ooh a another Florida city
I liked Destin and Jacksonville and St Augustine and Daytona Beach.
Awesome
I never been to Panama City Beach but I will go they’re 1 days
Save your money and go to Destin instead thank me later...
@@ronbarfield5615 I been to Destin twice
@@MasonWright1234 then Panama is like a step down. I'm 57 born and raised even most locals go to seaside or Destin vs the riff raff in PCB
@@ronbarfield5615 Panama City to Pensacola is about 90 miles
Just wondering if you know this video doesn't cover Panama City Beach.
👍 great
Thank you 👍
Moved here from Oregon, work in the Springfield area. Interesting needless to say.
How you liking the change? Considering the same move from Oregon.

still rebuilding after cat 5 hurricane michael
Unfortunately, Mike didn't cover the heavily damaged east side. People watching this video probably are thinking it wasn't so bad.
Mike did you drive down beach drive it's so beautiful.
I didn’t. I was pretty exhausted after this one from sitting in the traffic that I was about ready to be done filming for the day. I’ll definitely check out that area next time.
Yes, you were on Beach Drive 😁👍🏻
Panama City is a beautiful City. It is not home I am a native and I live it

What the fuck is that Panamá city?
No! It's Panama City, Florida.
That is one sleepy ass town.. Christ where the hell are the people!!
