I live in the Florida Panhandle. For Florida, I’d say Sarasota or the suburbs of Tampa on the water are great places to live. However, I grew up in Alabama and I would rather live in the Pensacola Beach/Perdido area.

If it was up to me, we would move to the Portland, Maine area. I go there for work and I love it. It’s too far from family for my wife, but I’d love to move there.

All great choices but I am not mad at living on the Sarasota coast myself. So many good choices here. One of my best life decisions.

Wouldn't be upset with a nice house on a few acres in Benton.

Quick hop to Hot Springs, close enough to work in LR
