Charlotte County was picked the Best Place to Live in the South, according to Money Magazine.
Factors taken into consideration were economy, health, crime, housing, education, weather, transportation, leisure, and arts. We were given high marks in weather, low crime, and a perfect score on its economy. This was primarily due to a projected job growth of 16.3%, the cost of living is 5% below the national average, our violent crimes are 59% below the national average, there are 11 churches to every night club, and it's sunny two out of every three days. Having affordable Gulf access homes for boaters, great fishing, several outstanding golf courses, and most of the population living a "no-rush" lifestyle doesn't hurt either.
So now the secret is out, Charlotte County is a GREAT place to buy a home. To find the right home, you'll need answers to the many questions you might have, like, how much can you afford? How much down payment is needed? What are the good golf courses? Can you afford a home with access to the Gulf of Mexico? and more. No wonder it's important to have a guide you can count on before you look for a home.
Englewood area weather is usually a delight. A gentle, balmy breeze blows out of the north in winter and from the south in summer.
In winter, air rising off the warm Gulf of Mexico prevents extremely low temperatures. Occasionally, the temperature may dip below freezing on a winter night, but a sweater donned in the morning is shed by lunchtime and cold fronts last only a few days. Winter temperatures average in the high 60s to low 70s during the day and the 50s during the night. This comfortable pattern has made winter the season to visit.
The weather starts warming up for the summer months by April. By August, the sun is at its fiery zenith. But take heart Englewood's summers, cooled by ocean breezes, tend to be less warm than many of its southern neighbors. Daytime temperatures average in the high 80s and residents have come to expect daily afternoon showers throughout the summer season. These provide a welcome cooling-off period and often, a spectacular lightning display. With the area's flat terrain, a good lightning storm can be seen for miles, its streaks of white cutting through dark skies or eerily illuminating thunder clouds.
Locals often hear the age-old summer question, "Is it hot enough for you?" But most can smile, knowing that the heat will pass and come winter, beachcombing, not snow shoveling, will be the rule.
