What’s Not to Love About Martin County Florida?
I’ve been in Martin County Florida for over 30 years now which makes it the place that where I’ve lived the longest time by more than triple the time of any place in my life. It’s the perfect place to be for those with families as we boast a wonderful school system with ‘A’ rated schools that have education and extracurricular programs and top rate graduation rates.
It’s also a wonderful place for growing up for children with safe communities, low crime rates and lots of fun activities available all year long.
And for those into active lifestyles, we have over 200 miles of waterfront for those wanting to enjoy our rivers or the crystal clear and warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean. World class fishing is just steps outside your door or a quick ride out to the Inlet. There’s also waterskiing and sailing. Those that are a bit more adventurous can enjoy year long windsurfing and kiteboarding available for all levels and we have the spots available for these sports for all wind directions.
Into golf? There are over 35 professional golf courses within a 20 mile radius of the Stuart FL area. Courses are available for all lifestyles from public courses to exclusive private clubs.
And, if you’re retired, you will find these same activities along with world class medical facilities available in all our communities.
All this in a County that strictly regulates urban sprawl by limiting unwanted new development and controlling the density of any new projects. There are no buildings over four stories allowed in the County and most developments are limited to only two stories. Traffic is hardly ever an issue and when you get to the store, restaurant or vendor of your choice it is rare to not have a parking spot available within steps of the front door.
Plus, it is still an affordable area. Retiring seniors will find some condos in excellent communities starting from as low as $50,000 while the likes of Tiger Woods and Greg Norman live in the Jupiter Island community of Martin County where you will need considerably more to have your dream estate.
So, come on down and fall in love with Martin County, but don’t tell everyone, we want to stay small and enjoy the quality lifestyle we’ve become accustomed to.
