Hello city data community!

I am reaching out to you guys for some help concerning a relocation to the Fort Myers area. I am a healthcare worker and I was initially suppose to relocate to Port St Lucie, but the plan fell through after further negotiation with the employer.

I have secured a position and will be working Fort Myers. I am looking to rent a furnished condo to start with. Do you guys have any suggestions as to which neighbourhoods I should limit my search to?

I need a 2 bed/2 bath, furnished, in a safe and quiet area, within a reasonable commute to Promise. We will be 2 people in our early 30s. We enjoy going to the beach, water activities, going out to restaurants, theatre, gardening, etc. I am looking to rent something for 6 months +1 day with possibility to renew for 1 year.

Preferably, I would like to rent a privately owned condo, not a rental community unit (bad experience).

I am aware that Fort Myers is not party central, and I am totally fine with that.

Thanks for your help!

That is in the Forum area. There are some rental places in the Forum across from the shopping center. Not so quiet though. Take a look in Gateway. There are some townhouse and condo developments scattered around Gateway where there are usually rentals available - some along the golf course. Very quiet and safe. It takes us about 10-15 minutes to get to the Home Depot in the Forum Shops from where we are in Gateway.

I agree - try Gateway. Also I would advise removing the name of your employer from this public forum.

Finally, we rented a furnished condo in Olde Hickory Country Club for 3 months. I hope it was a good choice!

Nice. And not a bad commute to the Forum area from there.

I'm moving from NJ to Fort Myers renting in Grand Oasis apartments (condo). Can anyone comment on the safety of that particular area and is there a choice in HS or is it only Dunbar?

Slow to see this but I see you're in healthcare. Look up the CMS stars for where you're working. Give it a long hard thought.
