Not sure how it ranks with surrounding areas - but there seems to be a large homeless population in PC - there seem to be many encampments not too far off 41. And while Sunseekers is nice it will be interesting to see if the surrounding area will benefit from the business- hoping to see less vaping shops and massage parlors. I do live in PC (SGC) and do enjoy the area. It is not pretentious and is more affordable than some surrounding areas.

Thanks for your insight! FL dept of health has a website that shows the state estimates for homeless population by county but only shows 2023 for most recent. Charlotte was estimated at 427 people. Which is almost 3x what it was in 2022 so that may be why it seems like you see more than before. It is lower than Lee county but slightly higher than Sarasota county and Hendry is listed as only having 4. Sunseeker will likely have a significant positive impact for the surrounding area. Over the next few years you will see commercial buildings make updates and new buildings be built and with those improvements rents will increase and change the types of businesses in those buildings. South Gulf Cove is a great neighborhood! Glad you enjoy living here!!

Yes. It’s pretty much non existent throughout all of SWFL unfortunately.

water, water , water. unreal insurance costs both homeowners and car. Taxes with new home owner property assessments, outrageous!, Public school rankings? unemployment rate? wages in comparison to up north in the usa? grocery costs? any large corporations in Port Charlotte? Crime rate? types of crimes? everyone have to commute to work? what choices are available for homeowners insurance? getting insurance costs on new ownership of a property prior to contract?

@@barryfigel9957 it’s big and doesn’t really fit in with what’s around it but that’s because most of what is around it is old and run down. Similar to what was there before they bought it. So while it may stick out like a sore thumb now, and it may not be your style, I think it’s a huge upgrade from what was there before and it has already sparked some other nearby building owners to do upgrades to their buildings as well. So I personally think it was good for the area.
