Hello,

Am seeking to relocate to a beautiful part of the United States, that has great architecture and beautiful beaches and that is less expensive than where I currently live, Washington, DC. For the past 11 years, I have bought, improved and sold for profit several historic homes and I would like to do this in a warmer climate. That's one of my day jobs. Another passion is acting. From websites I have searched, it appears that Pensacola has a very good theater company.

Thank you.

I lived there for 2 years, it was not for me. The pros were great beaches, less expensive that other places.

The cons were that it is much more humid than south Florida, think Dallas-Ft Worth type humidity. It is also a divided area. You have 3 distinct groups of people. Military from the Air Force base, extreme religious people, and a poor south population on the outskirts.

But they do have the opera and theater company which sounds like what you like.

Military from the Air Force base & Navy....
Do your research and then make your decision...

Oops, it is actually the Naval Air Station, not an Air Force Base. We lived about 3/4 mile from it.

You have NAS Pcola and Hurlburt Field/Eglin AFB in the area. Also Whiting Field in Milton. You might also find more info from PJC & UWF.
