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.

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.

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.
