Hi Amy – thanks for reading and for the comment. Is Bird Key Beach a public beach? Our understanding is that it’s private just for the residents of Bird Key.

Hello Matt, thanks for reaching out. You can refer to our Wellen Park Real Estate page linked here. At the bottom of the page there is an official Wellen Park map (most current from the developers) where you can see some of the roads. Hope this helps! https://thatfloridalife.com/wellen-park-real-estate/

Thanks for reading and for the comment! Those are some great beach towns too. We definitely enjoy the Ponce Inlet area! Thanks for adding those suggestions. – Liz

Hi there – thanks for reading and for the comment! There are certain areas that have more retirees / snowbirds than others. Within Venice, it really depends on the neighborhood itself. Neighborhoods such as Stoneybrook at Venice are known for having mostly families, in fact, that is a very family-friendly neighborhood (Halloween is quite the even there!). But there are other neighborhoods around town too that are great for families. You can check out our blog post here for more details about different neighborhoods and which ones are good for families – https://thatfloridalife.com/best-neighborhoods-in-venice-florida/

Another alternative is to venture just outside of Venice. The town of North Port is a bit further from the beach, but is very popular with families because it’s a bit more affordable. Or you can venture north toward Osprey and Sarasota – which are super family friendly all around.

I hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions or if you would like any help with finding a great home for you and your family. We specialize in helping families like yourself relocate to the area.

All the best!
