Sarasota is located between Manatee County to the North,
and Charlotte County to the south. Together, this area
is Florida's third-fastest growing major market. With
over 600,000 people, the Sarasota/Manatee/Charlotte area
is one of the largest, most affluent markets in Florida.
Sarasota has a large population of retirement age people
as well, about a third of the population, but the fastest-growing
segment of the market is middle-aged adults and their
children. It has approximately 1/4 the population of the
Tampa/St. Petersburg area.
One drive down Gulfstream Avenue, Longboat Key, or
Siesta Key and you will easily see the beauty Sarasota
has to offer. Sarasota Bay is gorgeous, and the brilliant
white sand of Longboat, Lido, and Siesta beaches will
leave a lasting impression. Tall condominiums line the
downtown streets, and just down the way is the Van Wezel
Performing Arts Hall.
As far as housing, Sarasota offers a diverse array
of homes, both old and new. Some homes were built over
50 years ago as vacation get away cottages. Others are
new gated bayfront estates with the finest amenities
found anywhere!
