Venice is a beautiful little town that meets the needs of practically everyone. With lovely year-round weather, so many beaches to choose from, and an adorable town filled with different cultures and traditions, Venice is truly a town for everyone. Venice is what you make of it!
For the people who say venice is just for the elderly it’s really not. I’m 23 and lived here all my life and I love it. There are so many young family’s moving into the area because of the cities small-town charm. Not to mention, it’s probably one of the safest places to live in florida. The public schools in the area are phenomenal. I loved going to school in Venice. The beaches and biking trails here are also great. The city is also building so much more for people to do. Venice basically has two downtowns one on the island and another in Wellen park in south Venice. The location of Venice in florida is amazing. 35 minutes to sarasota, 50 minutes to fort myers, an hour from ST. Pete, an 1 1/2 hours from Tampa and Naples, 2 1/2 hours from Orlando, and 3 hours from Miami. So, if you do get bored in Venice there are so many other close cities to explore that have much more vibrant nightlife. The last thing I love about this place is how inclusive it is to everyones differences.
We have lived in Venice for 35 years. It has only gotten better and more popular. There is a charming historic downtown with beautiful parks and very nice clothing stores, gift shops, excellent restaurants and a fabulous French bakery. It is a simple walk from the shops to the Gulf of Mexico where there is a public beach. The southern end of Venice Island has Casperson Beach which is wild and beautiful. Venice high school now has the IB program and if your children are gifted they can attend Pine View which is usually ranked number 1 in the state. We feel very fortunate to have lived here. Many people choose to retire here. There is a good theater here and a symphony and in Sarasota you have access to the Asolo Theater, ballet and lots of other cultural activities.
