Biggest downsides of living in Pembroke Pines?

Household incomes average around $81,675 in Pembroke Pines. The unemployment rate is 2.6%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $1,910/month for a decent place. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The suburbs are where most families end up.
Pros:

- Diverse community
- Strong sense of community
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Limited dining options
- High property taxes
