How cold and insensitive! I obviously know that! This forum uses to be so friendly It is so nice to talk to people who actually LIVE there My hometown talks to people all the time I am reminded of the time my son was moving to Tennessee , and I called a real estate agent and he told me everything is great , weather is great all year. The next day the town was wiped out by a tornado!!! And I have a similar agent from West Palm singing its praises too . We dont want to hear fairytales we want to hear from people who lived there this forum used to be like this not people just being condenscending. Ofcourse I will go visit it but it is not around the corner

I only rented in Wellington in The Palm Beach Polo Club for a short time though it was a few separate times which is a really nice community. I ended up in Boca but then moved out of state.
FL is very humid and hot. In the summer regardless of where you are in FL it feels like a sauna. Its the winter months where FL varies.
In my opinion and others I know FL health care is not good. Cleveland Clinic in FL is not like the one in Cleveland. For ex my grandpa lives in Boca and flew to Cleveland Clinic Ohio for treatment. Obviously all doctors in FL are not bad but personally I had bad experiences and like I said know others who have. I know if I had needed surgery or treatment I would of not had it in FL.
There is a really nice mall in Wellington but you mostly do need a car unless you live in walking distance to let's say the mall. There are a lot of homes, condos, and apartments which are.
I think Wellington varies in terms of safety. I felt OK where I was but didn't venture to much around Wellington.
What state do you live in now?

Hi - I do business all over Florida but mainly Palm Beach County and Broward Counties. Palm Beach County would include Wellington.

The Cleveland Clinic is in Weston, FL and would be about a 40 minute drive for you.

Wellington is in western Palm Beach County west of 441.

I've done loans for young couples who seem to love it there and just did a loan for a woman with a 37 year adult son (disabled) that lives with her and needs 24 hour caregiving (auto accident, I think).

What is your budget?

Hello pinecone lady! I have lived and worked in Wellington for years. There are 2 hospitals right in Wellington. Numerous Doctors with varying specialties right in Wellington. We have JFK hospital close by which I went to in 1995 for lung surgery...they are very good. In my opinion you really need to drive here as there is no real public transportation. We have many grocery stores, Trader Joes, Publix, Whole Foods, Aldi in the Village of Wellington. It is hot and humid here in the summer..but then most of Florida is unless you live in the northern part of Florida. The beach is only 20 minute drive. Most communities have their own pools you can cool off in. I moved my elderly Aunt here in 2009.( She is 86 years old now.) She has a single family home, lives alone and feels very safe. She lives in Sugar Pond Manor which is not governed by an HOA and is not gated. As far as jobs, it depends on what kind of jobs you are looking for. I would be happy to answer any questions you might have!
