    The attractions in this area are not likely our typical Orlando Disney adventure. We're a small town so all of our attractions happen to be local like water skiing in the inlet, or fishing, jesting, parasailing. Our town is full of outdoor activities that make us unique, especially since we all live about fifteen minutes from the beach!

    The transportation in this area is great if you have a car. The parking availability is plentiful considering you don't have to pay for parking and all the parking lots are big enough to never get full. The only problem I would say with our transportation system is that there are many high schools that do not own a car and therefore have to walk or use a bike to get to the mall, supermarket, movies, etc. There should be a better system of transportation in our area like busses or taxi's.
    The weather in this area of Florida I must say is great. It's sunny almost all year long and even thought we have heavy thunderstorms sometimes, our summers definitely make up for it. Our area doesn't experience natural disasters very often, although a natural disaster I could say that we face would be our thunderstorms/hurricanes, they tend to be severe and flood our streets.
