Atlanta Boomers Are Moving To This Scenic Florida City With Affordable Living And Sandy Beaches

There are many reasons why someone would choose to live in Atlanta. It has a bustling downtown area with attractions and restaurants, and it's a major corporate hub. But for Boomers born between 1946 and 1964 who are no longer in the workforce, the hustle and bustle of daily life in the big city may no longer be serving them. For those looking for a more laid-back lifestyle, Florida's Panama City, located in the Panhandle, could be worth considering. Panama City's proximity to Gulf Coast beaches offers opportunities for frequent beach trips, and recent migration data suggests that the surrounding area is attracting some Atlanta baby boomers.

The true cost of losing Sarasota Bay's natural infrastructure | Opinion

My family has called Florida home for six generations. When I am out on the water or walking with my family through the wetlands and uplands that remain in Sarasota and Manatee counties, I often find myself recalling how my ancestors saw these same waters and wetlands generations ago. They focused on progress and infrastructure that facilitated development, often at the cost of natural resources. Between 1950 and 1990, Sarasota Bay lost more than 1,800 acres of wetland habitat, approximately 38% of its wetlands, largely due to dredge-and-fill activities associated with coastal development, and we’ve continued to document reductions in natural areas since then. These habitats are the nurseries that support the fish and wildlife that make Sarasota Bay special. They sustain the food web that connects our “coastal corridor” of ecosystems, our fisheries, and the wildlife that draws people to these waters. Habitats need breathing room. Unlike roads, buildings and seawalls, natural shorelines are not static. They are living systems that are shaped by tides, storms and rising water. Their ability to adapt and expand is jeopardized when development surrounds them on one side and rising waters push from the other. Scientists call this process “coastal squeeze.” The result

Imagery, samples indicate red tide has reached Panama City area

PANAMA CITY — The red tide originating in St. Joseph Bay has reached Panama City Beach and St. Andrews Bay. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission has confirmed that several fish kills have been reported in Gulf and Bay counties in the past week, as of Nov. 10. FWC's daily sample map shows that low concentrations of Karenia brevis, the microscopic algae that causes red tide, were found at the downtown Panama City marina. Samples also found high concentrations in St. Joseph Bay. While a red tide health alert has been in place for Mexico Beach since Oct. 28, new samples prompted the Florida Department of Health in Bay County to issue a health caution alert for the downtown marina. FWC's website says that elevated chlorophyll levels were seen in the estuarine waters of Bay County, meaning St. Andrews Bay. Elevated chlorophyll is one of the ways red tide blooms are monitored. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's harmful algal bloom forecast shows the red tide intensifying along Panama City Beach. It also shows a hotspot near Shell Island and Mexico Beach. The forecast also shows low to medium levels of chlorophyll fluorescence throughout St. Andrews Bay. Most of St.
