Palma Ceia West

• Neighborhood in Tampa, FL
• 1 review

Niche User: Highest acclaim to Palma Ceia West NA for informative relevant posts despite having to deal with infamous residents like Helen Maseda on W San Carlos St. As an engineer at Tampa Electric (TECO), with her sadistic and condescending attitude she was responsible for diminishing or ruining the careers of no less than 5 (five) consecutive interns - 4 co-op (alternating work/study) student interns and an EIT (engineer in training - recent bachelor degree graduate engineer). All 5 only lasted one term of a few months and didn't return - some to different areas within TECO and many having left the field of engineering entirely. Normally less than 10% of interns don't return to their job position in the co-op work/study rotation. So the odds of 5 consecutive engineers not returning is 10%X10%X10%X10%X10% or .00001 - one in 100,000!

Current Resident: I have lived in Arbor Green my whole entire life and I absolutely love it! I have grown up in the same house and have met all my best friends here.

They have multiple pools, a fully furnished yoga studio, and even a full size gym that you can use any time you would like. This gated community is the perfect fit for any family looking for a beautiful place to live!

Port St. John

• Town in Florida
• 22 reviews

Current Resident: Port St. John is still a small community, but I think we're growing. Quick & easy commutes to Titusville, Merritt Island, Cocoa, Melbourne, Viera, & Orlando but not a lot to do in actual PSJ. My husband & I have built a quiet little life here with our dog and each enjoy ~20-minute commutes to work. We don't have children yet, so I just put average for the public schools, though that is an assumption. We feel safe here and it seems to be a nice community. We have lived here about 3.5 years now and plan to stay for the foreseeable future. Hopefully we will have more restaurants and other diversions added soon, that's the only real complaint we have, is regarding the lack of things to do close to home.

Spanishtown

• Neighborhood in Tampa, FL
• 1 review

Former Resident: This area is called South Tampa I lived for about 4 years and from Tampa is sad to say that people who has never lived there and definitely not for come and pick a random name place it on the internet and the name doesn't not represent the place at all. The word Spanish first of all makes you think it's a spanish speaking area or that there is a lot of there is a lot of spanish people living in that area. And I'm telling you it's not , It's a very diverse area and not too many spanish people live in that area .

Beach Haven

• Neighborhood in Jacksonville, FL
• 9 reviews

Current Resident: So central and convenient to grocery stores, department store, churches, etc. You are just a few miles from the beach and not have to pay such high beach home prices. My house at the Beach was 1250 square feet and built 1962 compared to a much newer building (2005)and 1750 square feet that I moved into. No comparison!

Mims

• Town in Florida
• 6 reviews

Current Resident: Mims is a small town, when you go up to the local handy way the workers know your name and most (if not all) your family. The town itself is only a few measly miles long but the amount of support and care everyone has for eachother here is like no other. Everyone knows everyone and takes care of eachother as if we are a huge family.

Mandarin

• Neighborhood in Jacksonville, FL
• 33 reviews

Current Resident: I love Mandarin and all the parks, shopping and family atmosphere. I wish that they would do more to clean up trash on local roads. During the Hurrican this year the city was able to help us and people around us recovery and rebuild. The community is very strong and we all bond together in times of need. I hope that people will become more involved with the history and nature around mandarin and invest more times in the beautiful parks mandarin offers.

Palm Shores

Current Resident: Quaint little town nestled in between Suntree and Melbourne beside the Indian river. I would like to see a public pool and possibly a campground with RV access. I cant say that they need to change but that would be a nice upgrade for this community.
