Apollo Beach Florida Pros and Cons

[@iceandflames]

I still prefer Hallandale Beach Florida more it’s a beautiful city with a growing communities and businesses and a good nightlife.❤

love the presentation! I have lived here in Apollo Beach since 2005. It is much better than you present it to be. I live and work in the area and have enjoyed the water access to boating and water leisure fishing, Pine Key, into Tampa dock and dine, and St Pete and Eggmont Key. I love walking up to Apollo Beach nature park each morning and having the manatee viewing venue right in my backyard.

The infrastructure is not there for the amount of construction that is occurring. The 41 and Big Bend. Two lanes each way. There is a lack of lights. Daily car crashes on the 41 between Apollo Beach Blvd and 19 Street. Most construction is part of HOA’s. Wherever you want to go, it is likely to be around 45 minutes to an hour. Going South to go Skyway Bridge directly to Saint Petersburg will cost you a toll each way. Construction will make a beach for a community. The beach in Apollo Beach is very, very small. You will most likely drive about a hour’s time to go to the beach.

Everything he said and is spot on. As far as boating community. Marina access or if you have a personal boat dock. Most of them have no locks/slings, or bridges so this allows for sailboat or large boat ownership. AB is growing more shopping gyms and if course homes and apartments. Construction is everywhere which comes from growth.

Apollo beach lacks shopping centers we have to go for Brandon for shopping bedsides food shopping and fast food places. But we’re getting a new shopping center on 41 right outside of Waterset

[@jazzyflorida3757]

What stores are going into that shopping center?

[@briancozzie5558]

We moved to Parrish and I rather drive north on 301 to those Ruskin/Apollo beach areas to shop then head south on 301 into the Parrish/Ellenton/Palmetto area. Too much

[@exmerion]

Probably should mention the biggest Con is that the place floods just as bad as south tampa very regularly and it's been lucky to avoid storm surge in every recent hurricane.

[@GeorgeGeo]

Why it wasn't built up....

[@jazzyflorida3757]

How about the power plant? Cheaper because of the nuclear plant on the water there. Isn’t that a detractor for some people, and the FLOODING is also an issue.

[@LiveLoveCHXBeach]

It's not nuclear. Teco power plant is hideous and emits natural gas fumes

[@MichaelSimpkinsRealty]

It's not nuclear and Apollo Beach has never flooded. The power plant is coal and is being shut down. Turned into gas 2024.

[@exmerion]

@@jazzyflorida3757 it's not nuclear. It's coal and natural gas.

The video is so far off base. I credible how someone can make a video tossing out random information with zero knowledge. Sad really.

[@LivinginTampa]

The new developments in Apollo beach will definitely drive more buyers to the area.

[@Sirenasycaballitos]

@@LivinginTampa yes, it will. But new developments is also changing the way this little town looks. It was green, very rural. Now, there is development everywhere (but that is the whole of Florida).

[@Sirenasycaballitos]

One of the reasons I think that the property values are less than in Tampa or St. Petersburg is because this area is a mixture of industrial buildings, TECO, and farms. Of course, over time , these industrial packing warehouse (Di Mare, Ruskin Farms), Home Depot Distribution Center and or warehouses on Big Bend might leave, but phosphate processing industrial plant is unlikely to leave, and residents will have to drive through these industrial parts. We also had to evacuate because of Ian because the surge would have covered the streets.
