Sounds like a lifestyle vs newer home battle, for me personally I want the lifestyle so I gotta say Mongo is the winner here… sorry AJ 😂. As always great video!!
Truth be told...if you have the coins to afford a home (house or townhouse) in Ft. Walton, which includes the insurance, property taxes, and utilities then go with the Ft. Walton area. However, you're going to pay for anything updated or modern and it may not be in an updated subdivision. In addition, you won't get the square footage for what you pay. The biggest pro is the location and it is accessible to everywhere! The majority of people moving to the area are in the military or they are military civilians working at one of the 3 bases here. You will get more for your money in a home in Crestview, but the city isn't suitable for people looking for entertainment or nightlife (honestly it's not much in FWB). If you're moving to the area with a family, then Crestview is a better choice. Even though Crestview is a modern day Mayberry, the area is growing and more people are moving up this way due to the cost of living differential. Overall, I chose Crestview because I got more house for the money and the neighborhood we chose gave my wife a sense of safety. Even though the beach is about a 40 minute + drive, it's good to come back home to a quiet area. The beach is nice, but the cost of living in that area don't add up when there are limited entertainment or nightlife for us grown folks. Mongo, made some good points, but when we were living in FWB, the beach was the only thing going in the area, but we could get to Navarre, Niceville, and Destin in a short time. The coastal restaurants were okay, but we went to more spots in Destin that FWB. The beach is still much closer from when we'd visit from Huntsville, so the drive ain't bad in my opinion. Crestview got the win (in my opinion) because the current cost of living is much more feasible than FWB.
