Cons: Outrageous housing prices and low paying jobs. Pros: weather, scenery, and lots of history.

@anaibarangan4908 Год назад

Jobs is the biggest problem in amount of pay, because it's still not expensive to buy a house, and no state income taxes. Only federal and property taxes. It's definitely a place to shop around for EVERYTHING, if looking for good stuff for better prices. That's because plenty exists. More expensive is because much more convenient. It also depends on how far want to live from everything else, because there's new neighborhoods like that, especially going east towards Tallahassee. I'll veer off from where I'm going, curious, and it's OMG look all building here in the middle of nowhere. That's because of the new infrastructures, bridges and highways. Santa Rosa County FL. It's sometimes as if Florida is getting ready to take in the rest of the country. All of New York City and New Jersey. Lol All red Republicans, where can't get rid of the Democrats anymore because rigged rigged rigged tight.

I appreciate the insight, looking to move to Pensacola, FL from Anchorage, AK. Visited friends a few times. My wife loves it. I have a few properties up here, couple pending for sale. The central locations, minutes from airport, I made Airbnbs out of, pretty profitable because of location, I lucked out not knowing what I was doing. Just tired of the cold, hits your bones every morning going to work. Selling everything, looking to rent there, see how we like it, at our age, don't want to be tied down to a 30 year mortgage, we love to travel.

@pcolapat74 Год назад

I have lived here my whole life, but have traveled extensively. Pensacola has changed in many ways and has stayed the same in many ways. It is a town that is growing but is resistant to change. The locals want to keep a small town feel, but the growth is relentless. Crime has become an increasing problem across the country, and Pensacola is no exception. There are efforts being made to modernize our downtown, but the crime heavy parts of town are in need of work. I would avoid west Pensacola. It really is a lost cause. Stay away from places near the interstates as well to avoid the drugs and homeless population. Pensacola is a tale of two cities. On one side is the touristy highlights, and the other is the poor and crime. Stick to the east side of town and downtown. After midnight, downtown can be dangerous. Pensacola is growing and has growing pains. They need to address the crime problem and embrace modern city realities. It is a medium sized town trying to come off as a small town. I love Pensacola, and will remain here, but I am ready for this town to accept that it is growing and want it to embrace that growth and lose the small town mentality. It needs to be managed for what it is and not what the locals wish it to be. We got problems here that need serious attention.

@TheTpm05c Год назад

Love to see the hustle Martez. Great production quality for your videos. Disagree with the cons on traffic and food options though. Relatively speaking, the only time you run into traffic is going from Pensacola out to Pensacola Beach but that is really only from the months of May through Labor day. Also depends on what time you decide to venture out to the beach. With the new tolling system on the beach, the traffic is way better. But if I had to guestimate, I would say my normal travel time from my house, in Warrington, to my spot on the beach, which is about 8 blocks past the fire-station, is 30-45 minutes. Not counting if there is a wreck on 3-mile. But for the majority of the year, it's smooth sailing out there. Food-wise, don't disagree with how late things are open, that is definitely a con. But you can find authentic mom and pop shops for various ethnicities but they exists on the west-side of the Pensacola area. Mainly Warrington and Brownsville. They do exist in other areas of Pensacola, but since they are such a small operation, they don't exactly market themselves well. So you got to hunt for them a bit. A great group I'd recommend to finding these smaller niche places is the Pensacola Foodies Facebook group. That being said, overall great video and I'll hit ya up next time I'm ready to purchase my next property. Cheers!

@herwaydailytv 2 года назад

It sometimes shocks me when ppl move here or someone mentions Pensacola online because being from here it always seems SMALL or possibly boring sometimes. I’ve watched your real estate videos and never knew Pensacola would be place ppl would really choose to go. I love being from here, I just wish there were more black spaces and like you mentioned, more food options. It is indeed like a retirement/military city but I think they are trying to come up from that . It’s going to take more than building a bunch of expensive houses and apartments to fix that tho. Also, it’s a lot of gentrification happening in the downtown area.

I agree with Martez, this is a retirement town. Personally I love it this way. I do tell the younger generation to ask someone your age about things to do here. I did retire here and my wife and I do retired things: walk, take the grand to the beach; church; eat out at times, but backyard cookout frequently. We do go to some events around town and sporting events; did you notice I didn't mention clubs. Younger folk, I will leave that to you. I am happy with the P'Cola lifestyle.

I’m from Louisiana, and I’ve lived here for 2 years. I have to agree heavily on the FOOD! There’s lots of your basic fast food restaurants here, but a very small amount of nearby authentic style foods. Seafood is not near as appetizing here as Louisiana. We had lots of seafood restaurants in La, and they were all wonderful. I’ve yet to find a seafood restaurant here in Fl that impresses me. I thought moving here would mean more food options but most days, I am disappointed in the choices we have here. This video was great, very honest, and accurate!

I moved to Pensacola from Los Angeles and like it very much. I was not expecting people to be so friendly and it feels more relaxing as a place to live. There is enough variety of restaurants and shopping plsces. They have high end and low end restaurants. Also compared to Miami Pensacola is close to Alabama so you can feel and experience the southern hospitality. When I moved into my home the cars driving by on my street would wave hello! In L.A. half the folks there don't care about your problems, the other half are glad you have them. Also the beaches are to die. I have been around the world and think these beaches are as good as the islands in the Philippines and Thailand. Also No biteing sand flys! Sand stays cool under the sun, water is clear. The only thing I noticed and it's a strange one in LA the fast food drive through places have very friendly people that work the window and as service people inside, maybe they are trained that way Like at In and Out Burger and Chic Falay all the staff are super friendly, but in Pensacola I don't see that, I don't know where they find their employees. I was going to Lowes and Home Depot every day to buy things for my new home and always fell into a conversation with the folks inside, customers and workers very layed back. I also do lke the change of weather and the fact that it rains hard. In LA everyday is the same.

And what do they pay salary wise?

@XailensWorld Год назад

While I can't predict if the housing market will get better, I can tell you that the cost of housing is far more expensive than what the wages support for that area. If you do find something affordable, it's probably gonna be crappy housing. When you really explore Pensacola, you will find they have a lot of shoddy looking neighborhoods. The job market there sucks, unless you work in healthcare (RNs/Drs), work at Navy Federal, or are in the military. For context, when I was living there, with a degree I was making anywhere from $10-$15/hr. I randomly applied for a job in another city and got hired doing the same thing for $22/hr. Fast forward 6 years later and I'm making 6 figures. Most of the people I grew up with there who got degrees have not returned to Pensacola because they make a better living and have a higher quality of life elsewhere. Also the racism....it's very covert but if you take a look at the comments on WEAR Pensacola News Facebook....you will get an idea of how they really feel. Very conservative, country, and racist.

@mikeg1449 2 года назад

I've always said people from Georgia move to pensacola and people from pensacola move to Georgia. I was born and raised in Georgia in a town 20 minutes west of Atlanta and ended up living about 40 minutes from pensacola. One of my good friends was born in Milton he moved to my home town where we met years later he ended up moving back to pensacola cause his family moved back. My family decided to move near pensacola cause my grandfather lived in pace and my mom wanted to be near her father so years later I moved from Georgia to near pensacola and have been here since.

I went to middle school and high school here and this place legit sucks. I had to move during college cause every time my friends go out, it was always the same 3 main bars that people go to when bar hopping. It felt like I was stuck in an endless loop. I still have family here so I still visit them on occasions and when I'm in town to hangout with my friends, it's always just going to downtown going to the same 3 bars. lot of people do drugs too.

@frankishknight1878 Год назад

We, ère in Pensacola vacationing for a week. We are from Western Missouri. A nice clean place and friendly locals. Wonderful downtown all together. The cons: It is very spread out therefore, Not a walkable community. Dangerous to cycle there due to too many cars and drivers going too fast and not paying attention. Public transit seems skeletal. No streetcars nor light rail. Also, the Amtrak Sunset Limited service stopped in 2005 due to Katrina. Certainly not a place where to retire to and live car free.

Everything he said in this video is facts! 💯🎯 There’s nothing there besides the beach, seafood, and Whataburgerrrrrrrr lol. The job market sucks there! The public school system is meh, depending on which school. Those moving there from Atlanta don’t expect to find something to do all the time. It’s slower than Atlanta. The traffic isn’t bad like in Atlanta. I moved to Sandy Springs from Pensacola for abt 6 years, then recently moved to the Bay Area in FL. Crab Island in Destin is dope. Gallery Night is fun though! I wouldn’t stay in Mayfair, Montclair, Warrington, and Shantytown. I def would NOT 🚫 stay in the apartment complexes called Oakwood Terrace, Warrington Village and Pensacola Village. Matter of fact just stay away from them 3 😂😂 I’d do East Hill, Downtown Historic District, Perdido Key (not really Pensacola though), and the Scenic area. Overall Pensacola is cool! 😊☺️

as of today (4/2022) the place is too expensive. I am from WA, explored it for a week or so, my conclusion was nice place to live, good weather but more good spot (close to the beaches are super expensive), even out of state like me (WA housing is crazy like California) still consider this place is to expensive. But the very very important thing: not a lot of work, you can't do much if you have no income. If you look at the stats, people were excited to move there and resell their properties in just a short few years. That is not good.

PNS is not expensive at all. If you fly with American Airlines, you can literally get to dallas for 120 bucks, then you can fly anywhere you want. So what you said about PNS being more expensive is false. Also, the parking is cheap at the airport, cheaper than NOLA and you would spend more money in gasoline and wear and tear going to nola and back. So yeah, not true about the airport. In fact, PNS is a really awesome airport for the area. I use it all the time with American airlines, super inexpensive!!
