Those are facts!! Not misconceptions of the mind.
Sarasota County is splitting Englewood between themselves and Charlotte County.
Sorry, you don't seem to know everything after all.

Please allow me to strongly disagree politely....and based on certain and unequivocal truth


Sorry, there is NO "Pearl Street" in Manatee County

"Pearl Street" is in Nokomis, Sarasota County

"Pearl Avenue" is in Manatee County, near Whitfield and the bay, and US 41


Fact #1: "Pearl AVENUE" has always had a US POSTAL service delivery
address although within Manatee County

Fact #2: US POSTAL delivery designations don't have to coincide with geopolitical designation or boundary




Pearl Avenue does not traverse any part of Sarasota County

"Pearl Street" is in Nokomis, Sarasota County

"Pearl Avenue" is in Manatee County, near Whitfield and the bay, and US 41


Fact #1: "Pearl AVENUE" has always had a US POSTAL service delivery
address although within Manatee County

Fact #2: US POSTAL delivery designations don't have to coincide with geopolitical designation or boundary




Pearl Avenue does not traverse any part of Sarasota County

You seem to be arguing with me when in fact you stated exactly what I said.
Pearl Ave (as you will) is in Manatee Co with the zip code 34243 and the address is Sarasota.
Zip code 34243 is a Sarasota address and some of it is in the University Ave. area but is still in Manatee Co.
Pearl Ave in Sarasota's Manatee Co. side actually borders with Bradenton, also in Manatee Co. and the 34207 zip.

Thank you!!

Thank you!!

Let's solve this!

If you check Mapquest, you will see that Pearl Avenue is technically in Manatee County, but it has a Sarasota address and a zip of 34243. That is like the Sarasota-Bradenton Convention Center, it is in Manatee County, but it's city address is Sarasota. Same with Pearl Avenue.

"BRADENTON - A police officer shot and killed a man who was in a house on 12th Avenue West this afternoon.
A spokesman at Manatee Memorial Hospital said the unidentified man who was shot has died.
A Manatee County Public Safety official said one person was shot while in a house in the 1700 block of 12th Avenue West just before 2 p.m."

Police blotter

43 instances of "criminal mischief" often multiple counts
100 instances of "burglary" as many as six counts at a single incident which in Florida according to the Criminal Code reads more like "criminal trespass" than "stealing" and first degree felony burglary wouldn't likely be prosecuted as such because so many bigger penalty felonies would apply so the blotter shows cases of "criminal trespass" most likely
83 instances of theft (36 grand)
22 instances of larceny.
18 traffic offenses
17 narcotics-related
11 DUI
8 fraud
5 forgery

So of that list which looks impressive, you have 307 misdemeanors or non-violent felonies aka Property Crimes. Meaning most were petty crimes.

These are NOT indications of massive gang infiltration.

Merely printing out the blotter with every last thing on it shows that yes, Bradenton is like any other moderately sized city with a reasonable mix of young and old population. Of course there is crime.

But that list does not in any way make any point regarding the tone of those who insist that newcomers should avoid the area.

I checked the West LA PD blotter and even though there is a MUCH larger police presence and the neighborhoods are much more affluent than Bradenton (factors to offset population and lower income), they still had over 300 property crimes for the last week of June '08.

If you were to see the Blotter for major metro area, it'd make Bradenton look like the sticks.

As another metric, what was the ratio of crimes per 10,000 people? My old neighborhood was 114.8. And those are partial. The Culver City PD crime stats are not available online.

Again, Bradenton has issues like any growing city. Issues which this recession certainly exacerbate. The question was asking about if Bradenton was an okay place to live. And it is. Some may like it in other places and that's fine, God Bless.

My only point was that the laundry list from the Blotter not only doesn't prove anything, it provides a VERY false impression for someone who wouldn't take the time to actually break down what crimes were included. Now, if you broke it down by violent crime, crime per 10k population, % increase in crime year over year and year over 5 year periods, THEN it might mean something. Just publishing the list doesn't mean anything in and of itself.

That's what I said!! Even though this guy has blocked me, he at least agreed that I do know where I lived.
I didn't need to mapquest it. I really did know where I lived.
That's how it is when you're a tax paying, voting citizen.

Bless you for your input. I'm so happy to see that there is someone on this forum that can see things really aren't any worse in good ole Beadenton as they are any where else, not only in Florida, but in the good ole USA.

You are un aware of what a city with crime issues is, Bradenton is a sleepy town with hardly any crime at all,
get real!!! There are some dicey "looking" areas of town yes.
The central East side of town has a large minority population and there is a section of town nearby Troipcana that has a housing project yes.!!
It is mostly if not all african american people that live there and in that area.

But people on this forum have no idea what crime issues are!! It's crazy and annoying how people make Bradenton out to be Compton or something.

Let me tell you all something ,there are no real gang problems in Bradenton, the Murder rate is very very very low!!
The unemployment rate is not even that bad.

I went to HighSchool in Bradenton,
I live in Cincinnati , Ohio now and can tell you this, if you think Bradenton is bad, you would think Cincinnati is a third world country or a war zone of sorts , I grew up in Bradenton thinking it was kinda bad too, I can tell you after living in Cincinnati and Chicago for the last couple years, Bradenton is so safe and has no real ghetto areas, I am talking about places you would not go into , day or night.
peolple in Florida are used to country clubs and older white folks in there neiborhoods and become dis elutioned when they see t here city having a shooting or black kid on the news who had commited a petty crime at the circle K on the other side of town..
