re: Bradenton, FL - Tell me about it

I grew up there (graduated HS in 1981) and still have family there.
Live in the FL Panhandle now.
Beaches are very good (FL Panhandle is better IMO). Anna Maria Island still has a beach town feel as there are not as many large condos as found elsewhere. Beaches traffic is a PITA these days as there are only two 2 lane roads to the Island. Just as it was 50 years ago.
Housing prices are pretty steep in Bradenton itself - location. Expansion is primarily to the east - see Lakewood Ranch or north/northeast - see Palmetto, Ellenton.
Easy access to SRQ (Sarasota Bradenton Airport).
Nice State Parks nearby - Myakka and Oscar Sherer.
Great weather year round - tho summers can be dang hot.
Like the rest of Florida, it keeps growing and has changed alot from 30+ years ago.
