Cape Coral is a very large city, spread out. I suppose you could find a decent neighborhood, but I have never been fond of the Cape. You decide for yourself.

Even the bars looked lonely........I would go crazy if I was under 25 here....

The kid who posted he wants to go to L.A.; please go we don't want gang-
bangers around anyway....you'll find all the gang-bangers you want out there; good riddence to you, baggy pants boy!!
