Bradenton-Sarasota ranked #1 in U.S. for Well-being...

No wonder I live where I do, compared to when I first moved to this state.

Love my local area, glad to see it recognized on a national view.

This does not surprise me. I was quite impressed with the area when I was there for the "unofficial Gauntlet" awhile ago. I was so impressed I put it on my list of places I might move to. As it turns out, when we decided to come down off the mountain in North Georgia, family considerations dictated a move to the Pensacola area. If it weren't for that Sarasota/Bradenton would have been my choice. It's a really cool place with everything you could imagine to want.
