I feel like Hollywood has become more crowded. Too much traffic and people driving noisy cars at all times of the day and night. Going to the beach used to be nice, but now parking is too expensive and that is if you find a spot. Not to mention that unfortunately the beaches are polluted. Which is very unfortunate!
Hollywood is an average place. It is somewhat boring and not much happens. It is mainly suburbs, townhomes, and shopping plazas in which publix is the main attraction. Of course we do have the Hard Rock guitar hotel, which I will say is beautiful to look at and oddly comforting to see when you're on the highway and know you're almost home. Hollywood also does have a nice beach area and you can find some life there. One of the main reasons why hollywood is just an average place is that nothing is ever happening. There are no city celebrations (outside of public holidays), no nightlife, and no sense of community (outside of parents involved in their children's school or the many, many churches). There is nothing wrong with that and sometimes too busy places are way worse but if you crave action and a busy nightlife this place does not have it.
Neighbors are really sweet and the area is family friendly. I am happy to raise my daughter here. I live close to the beach so it’s not even a far walk to get there and also of course the nightlife is basically downstairs from where we live. I see a lot of people walking and riding bikes on the beach during the day. There’s a big diversity with all kinds of people. You can meet a new person everyday. I enjoy going to the beach and having a pool in our building. There’s a restaurant that I love to go to and the people there are the nicest I have ever met and they always give the best customer service like no other. My family loves doing fun things so we always find something to do EVERYDAY is really amazing. There are lots of business close by and even grocery stores close by. I always find everything I need without an issue. I love loving In Hollywood and I would recommend them to everyone I know because it very convenient, family friendly, and has lots of fun activities to do
