I almost completely disagree. I just came back to California from house hunting in Naples and it was beautiful. No, bugs, mosquitoes, or roaches. There are restaurants open later than 9pm and the weather was gorgeous, we even caught a day of rain. Everything is not expensive and gas was $3.21 a gallon compared to $4.79 in California. I can’t wait to move there.

I visited in May this year from the UK. I can't comment on some of the points, but as a place it is beautiful, peaceful and a glorious beach. i would love to visit again....

I've lived in Naples since 2008, but don't find anything she said to be true. Where does she get her information? Pretty bizarre.

We just bought a condo on the beach in Park Shore. We chose Naples after visiting a lot of cities on the East and West coast of the state. You sound very unhappy.

She forgot to mention the growing homeless population, standing in the streets, begging at intersections. A YouTuber that lives in Bradenton recently aired podcasts about where all the homeless encampments that he could find are located, and the conditions inside the encampments. There are no social programs to help anyone should they suddenly fall onto hard times. My girlfriend drives 65miles out of Naples to see the doctor that accepts her NYPD health insurance. No doctor in Naples that she sought accepts her insurance.

I’m glad Naples Florida is expensive. It keeps trash 🗑️ out of a rich city. Unlike West Palm Beach 🏝️ that allow trash to move in and destroy a once nice city

I've been to Naples many times, over the past 20 years of my life, and neither the weather nor the insects bothered me. If I do end up moving to FL, Naples is certainly near the top of my list. 😎✌

Naples is just for having a safe and nice place to reside. Miami, Key West and the Bahamas are the fun places to visit but always come back to Naples after. And yes in the Summer stay away- hot and humid- rains every day.If you fallow this routine you will love Naples for life.
God Bless the great folks in SW Florida!!!
I love you all 🏖️☀️💓😎💞🏝️

LOL . She’s incorrect on so many issues . The only way to go in Naples is gated . While the fees are high, it includes water, pest control, beautiful golf greens, hurricane coverage if condo or townhouse. Cost of groceries at Publix, cheaper than Krogers and they have cashiers and take your groceries to your car . Only multi, multi, multi millionaires live on the ocean and they are taking a chance with zero hurricane insurance because they can afford to .
Don’t compete with others . Be your own person and enjoy the area .

THIS is the kind of negative Nelly you want to avoid! Talk about a toxic woman! LOL. Naples is BEAUTIFUL!! Listen to POSITIVE PEOPLE! If you want to live here DO IT! My husband and I came in 2018 and LOVE NAPLES!! Beautiful, PARADISE!!!

This is a well-done and very informative video that should have more views. I've been visiting my family down in Naples for 13 years. The weather is unbearable in the summer. The city is quite boring unless you're with people who want to do things. And Laurie is right about everything closing down at night. On the flip side, Naples is very safe, very clean, very beautiful, the people are nice (not sure about snowbirds), and there's lots of great food and outdoor options.

i agree with all the things you said, lots of people were so "impressed" with the place on the first few visits but that that is life in tropical land. I live in Pensacola :)

[sannyvain]

I am a night owl since I do Ubereats at night . So Naples is off my list 😅 thank you !

[Bizzy-Bumble]

Sounds like a beautiful place to live!

[AGC-JiuJitsu]

I don’t understand why people like living in communities or paying the HOA Aholes, everyone is proud to tell you ( i live in a private community 🙄), almost seems like people are scared to live outside a gated community 🤦‍♂️🤣😂

[susiachmady]

your tips are very interesting. thanks for being very useful for everyone. greetings from England

[ky]

[MB]

[micheleh]

We love living in Naples. But it is not for everyone. Thank goodness!
