Lived there for over 10 years so glad I left. Most of the restaurants are quick service. The traffic is terrible. There isn’t much to do. They have a nice park for kids and walking track. Problems is at night the homeless and drug addics wake up and patrol the area. Bowling alley shut down. Skating rink shut down. Dance studio for adults shut down. The movie theater is still up and running. Bars where the police need to be close by are still up and running. Plenty of churches and smaller shopping. There are some places at the river to hang out if you like the smell of urine since there is no bathroom people walk off on the side of the river bank.

Are there any 55 plus developments near the beach?

Ty for info

Developers destroyed it. Impossible to afford and y’all ran the locals out. I’ll never forget when developers from up north petitioned to close the Spence fishery. I learned to hate developers that day. I was 10. They only want money. Evil people that destroyed the woods.

I've been in Crestucky sine 2020 and enjoy above hwy 90. When you cross 90 going south I call it Hades for a few reasons #1 traffic, #2 Homeless addics jay walking looking to get hit #3 they're no border wall

Lived in Destin for 30 years and hated every minute of it. If you enjoy traffic , mosquitoes, tourists and walking on eggshells every summer because of hirricane season…..this place is for you. If you enjoy waiting 20 minutes to get on 98 just to drive 2 millimeters within 4 hours…this place is for you. If you enjoy waiting 45 to be seated in a restaurant during spring and summer break, you’ll love this town. If you enjoy your outrageous property taxes and homeowners insurance ( if you can find one ) this place is for you. Again,lived in Destin for 3 decades. Sold our home and bought our dream retirement home in Henderson Nevada 2019. Nice quiet place close to the mountains. Have a huge pool and no mosquitoes or obnoxious tourists. We can chill up here in Black Mountain or drive 20 minutes west to Las Vegas . Btw….we have an acre lot and a 2000 sq home . Our property tax is 600 …A YEAR 💋

I’ve been going to Crestview for over 15 years for medical I’ve never heard about he zoo.

The traffic is horrible

Terrible traffic, gas is more expensive than the south end of the county, milk is more expensive (as of 7/19/24) than south end and actually twice as expensive than in Pensacola! And Casbah Coffee Co. closed, bummer!

"Diverse community" ? In what way? Gov DeSantis seems to me passing laws as fast as he can to ensure that is not the case. River tubing. Cool I didn't know that. Good point on new dev where construction noise might be an ongoing issue for a short time. Paying upfront for upgrades if you then cancel. Great point - have not heard that before. Also VA hidden fees. Thanks for that heads up. And no Gutters??????? Great summary.

why, when you can't insure it???

A minor negative of moving into a new build subdivision (from personal experience) nails in your tires 😊

Crestview has nature walks and rivers. Canoeing and tubing.

Crestuckey is lower georgia / alabama pretty boring town off of I 10.

CrackView

You failed to mention the hwy 85 rolling parking lot that people will get stuck in if they work outside of crestview. The traffic situation currently in crestview is HORRIBLE! The lack of planning ahead has hurt locals and those moving here. If you are planning to move to Crestview and have appts or will be working in Ft Walton Bch, Niceville, or Destin leave at the very least an hour or more before your appt or work time. Good luck!

Andrew, you´re an awesome person! We have friends in Navarre and we´ll be there to visit agin next week. We´ll definitely check out some of the things we haven´t seen yet, like Tommy´s! Thanks a lot!

Truth be told...if you have the coins to afford a home (house or townhouse) in Ft. Walton, which includes the insurance, property taxes, and utilities then go with the Ft. Walton area. However, you're going to pay for anything updated or modern and it may not be in an updated subdivision. In addition, you won't get the square footage for what you pay. The biggest pro is the location and it is accessible to everywhere! The majority of people moving to the area are in the military or they are military civilians working at one of the 3 bases here. You will get more for your money in a home in Crestview, but the city isn't suitable for people looking for entertainment or nightlife (honestly it's not much in FWB). If you're moving to the area with a family, then Crestview is a better choice. Even though Crestview is a modern day Mayberry, the area is growing and more people are moving up this way due to the cost of living differential. Overall, I chose Crestview because I got more house for the money and the neighborhood we chose gave my wife a sense of safety. Even though the beach is about a 40 minute + drive, it's good to come back home to a quiet area. The beach is nice, but the cost of living in that area don't add up when there are limited entertainment or nightlife for us grown folks. Mongo, made some good points, but when we were living in FWB, the beach was the only thing going in the area, but we could get to Navarre, Niceville, and Destin in a short time. The coastal restaurants were okay, but we went to more spots in Destin that FWB. The beach is still much closer from when we'd visit from Huntsville, so the drive ain't bad in my opinion. Crestview got the win (in my opinion) because the current cost of living is much more feasible than FWB.

The Easter Egg Hunt is legit. Been in Crestview since 2018.

I think the beach outweighs everything… right?! 🤷🏼‍♂️

Sounds like a lifestyle vs newer home battle, for me personally I want the lifestyle so I gotta say Mongo is the winner here… sorry AJ 😂. As always great video!!

The unit you are trying sell I bet was used by top ranking military officials.

Fantastic place to stay, family oriented, gated, clean, nice staff, and a great location. So much to do within walking distance.

Hello Andrew, thanks for the quick response. I'm currently working down range as a contractor and will be coming back to retire later this year. I'll reach out to you in the coming months. Thanks again, Joseph

Hello Andrew, I'm looking at one bedroom condos in Fort Walton. i would like to know the cost of insurance at the Finisterra, Fountainhead, and the Cedars? Thanks in advance for your help.

Can you still bring and ride your horses at Beasley State park?

Just stay away from main Street and legion. Probably the worst area in town

That's because there's a deep pool of cold water just south of Destin that inhibits thunderstorm development.

Everything north of 98 is shit. Except for Kelly plantation and regatta Bay

1st is over 500k, 2nd under 1M, 3rd over 2M?

Gilf Breeze seems interesting, i loke that it welcomes golf carts

How much was are of them?

Please consider upgrading your microphone & possibly adding some soundproofing to your studio. Trying to understand what you're saying with the echo is exhausting! Thanks.

Where can you kayak from to get to crab island?

Really felt like this lacked good specific information. Very amateurish as I was really wanting to get good local specific information. Wasted at least 15 minutes.

I'm looking to move there next month. Im having a hard time finding a place. I live off one income (disability) with one child and my credit is poor. I need help.

We just got back from Destin and several of the condos that were literally on the beach in a beach resort we’re in the $600,000 range to $700,000 for super nice ones with a view! So there’s no way I’m paying $1 million for something that looks like a basic condo/apartment building nowhere near the water. And no water view. Although I did enjoy your videos and I do enjoy your channel there’s just no way.
