Quick question about Sarasota Springs

Random thought, With a population of 12,669, Sarasota Springs is a small town. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.

I've been living here for 1 years and I'd say it's improved dramatically in recent years. The healthcare is pretty good compared to other places I've lived. Overall It's not for everyone but it works for us..

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem solid.

I've been here 14 years and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The thing nobody mentions is walkability. It's pricey and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the walkability is legit. And if you're into skiing, this place is surprisingly good.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Highland side vs the Old Town side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
