It's kind of lonely from what he tells me (he's single). Most people are tourists or seasonal. Not as many locals as you'd think. Hard to cultivate relationships / friends sometimes.

We're retiring soon, so no need to look for work. We won't live there permanently, and my sister will be using it too. With a new grand baby in CA, we'll downsize and keep a condo in Ventura Co. The house we're looking at is in Ramrod Key, so a ways from the crazy tourism. I have no idea how far we'd have to drive for groceries, restaurants, etc. I'm doing the research now….but the lack of social interaction could be a problem…especially if Ramrod Key has no business district.
