Seminole Casino Immokalee (Lehigh Acres, Naples, Golden Gate: apartment, rentals, construction)

[acpitbull2]

Possible relocation from NJ to work at Seminole Casino in Immokalee.
Where are the best places to live within 40 minute drive to property?
I'm considering North Naples. Any thoughts? Thanks for any info.

What is your housing budget?

Do you know what Immokalee is like?

North Naples is fine but it will be at least 30 miles.

Ave Maria, Waterways, Orangertree, or the northern Golden Gate Estates will be closer. Lehigh Acres would be closer also but I don't reccomend there.

You could try Immokalees newest Apartment community CrestView.

I'm considering a position in Immokalee as well but there are few to no rentals to be found. Crestview and a few listings in GGE are all I've been able to locate. Ave Maria is pricey for rentals and Lehigh Acres appears unsafe. So I guess the only alternative is drive a long way...sigh

I’ve driven the reverse commute along Immokalee road a few times... from I-75 in Naples to downtown Immokalee in the morning and heading back to I-75 in the afternoon. It’s a long drive, just under an hour. More than half the trip is on a newly widened six (?) lane highway, but the remainder is on an old two lane road with a reputation for bad wrecks. I wouldn’t want to drive it at night.


Immokalee is considered to be a rural community of agriculture and construction workers with a large (71.0%) Hispanic population.

Crestview Park is subsidized housing, which is not surprising since most of Immokalee's residents are in abject poverty.
