Exploring: Port Charlotte

[@evolverespiritus3990]

The town seemed overall clean, laid back, and friendly. I would live there. Enjoyed the video. 👍

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

THANK YOU for your comments as always!!! nice town for sure. kinda boring!

[@sage9750]

I live here some people are nice and some are mean it's just a standard town

[@sage9750]

Also I see the puntagorda bridge

[@1hp219]

I live here pretty nice except the robbery’s

[@jasminenystrom9074]

Lived there 10 years. Rent is super high, there’s nothing to do ( you need to drive to Sarasota or Fort Myers) for fun and the jobs paid squat when I was there. You needed two or three incomes to be able to have a decent life. The minimum wage wasn’t $15.00 an hour back then. Glad they changed that

[@MonkyPocks01]

Port Charlotte is great!! Was born there in 1984 at St Joseph’s Hospital on Harbor Blvd, idk what it’s called now. I’ve moved away but a lot of my family still have houses down there. I love going to visit them. There’s absolutely no night life but it’s super chill and calming there. The sirens you’re hearing throughout “the hood” are ambulances. Port Charlottes two major hospitals are right there across from each other. Would definitely recommend living there, maybe go east of 41 tho with all the hurricane and storm surge threats lately. 🤷🏻❤

[@gregorgman]

Pt Charlotte is a great place to live, we enjoy it; moved down from Jacksonville which is MURDER CITY!

[@trankt54155]

Nice video. How come there are no fruit trees?

[@robschmidt5014]

Great video. Port Charlotte has changed a lot since I have lived down there. What kind of work do you do?

[@hotfootsue]

hiya jose - i've said it before but... ty for your time and hood vlogs. one day soon this girl gonna leave nasty ny. being informed of residential hoods other than resorts is so very helpful!

[@augustaporter3735]

Lived in the same house in Port Charlotte for 35 years. Never had a problem ! Just because you have an older home don’t make you bad. All of that was not easy street areas all around. Your near the hospital that’s why the sirens. Both hospitals are down the road. Block and stucco homes.

[@mayergravity]

you weren't joking about your junk removal biz, assuming that was your vehicle. Do you resell some of the stuff you get?

[@chimesmusicandvideoproduct370]

A great place to live as long as you don’t need healthcare! We have three for profit hospitals that generate a sucking sound while the money comes out your wallet. They are marginal at best. With West Port now adding to bloat the population and no plans for a major health center to be brought in to the community, if you come here be YOUNG and HEALTHY because if you get sick you will be in trouble. My own doctor told me that for a procedure I need to have done (elective) look for a surgeon in Sarasota or further north. During season the traffic is becoming brutal...we are becoming like the east coast - not why we moved here- we came here to get out of society. We hate snowbirds...so just send your money!

[@macbethandherdemon645]

We don’t need a skyline I miss seeing the harbor when I would go across the bridge a lot of people that live here don’t want it

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

I am pretty sure they dont. but, its a plotted town, and those empty lots will be filled in.

[@goldcicvibefel9966]

Port C was demolished in 2004 by very high CAT4 hurricane Charlie. I went in with brothers 10 min. after eye went thru. They were mil op and I was child. Utter devastation. Both PG And PC.

[@cyndeemiller9695]

Charlie took my Mother's, House. On Bangsburg Road, it was so sad all the money her and my step-father rolled in to that place It was so nice. I was moved there in 1968 and we stopped in Cape Canaveral to see the Nasa Lift off. I still hate it, bugs, humidity, snakes, flying cockroaches, no see ums, love bugs, etc.

[@macbethandherdemon645]

You gotta go on like starlight, key gerbulter, it might not seem ghetto but there is some hard drugs you can find in those neighborhoods

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

well, its a nice town so you cant expect it to be like compton out there

There are homeless all over the place. I live in Punta Gorda and it is boring. Great places to eat tho if you can afford it.

[@cengel1951]

Easy street is early 60's The same handful of floor plans over and over most of port charlotte.. Newer houses came later

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

HEY THANKS! nice quiet town

[@pvalentin214]

I really like Cape coral you was a big helpp

[@X4530sweeper]

I disagree agree with you that Punta Gorda is more expensive then Port Charlie in some cases it’s the opposite

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

nice cat

[@gratitudegoddess2410]

I'm from Michigan originally I said the same thing when I saw that whole area over by Easy St. but it filled with drugs in that area. Only thing Easy about it is maybe going to jail. If you plan on buying a house don't live there. At best it's rental property that's if you can get good tenants in there that'll pay and not destroy your investment FR. Things aren't always as they look bro, trust me, been living here in Port Charlotte now almost 7 yrs.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

You see lots of drugs I guess? Sad

[@lorenzogenik6306]

Hood***

[@deviousfate]

I live there. It's boring as hell. There's nothing to do. It USED TO BE affordable. But personally I don't think that $1200 for a 2 bedroom is affordable, not if you want to have any sort of life... And since you have to travel an hour north, south, or east to do ANYTHING, you need to have some spending cash.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

BORING 100 %

[@kropking]

To a Californian like me, $1200 for a 2-bedroom sounds like the deal of the century. I'd have to pay about $2000 for that.

Technically the beginning aerial shot of the unfinished Sun Seeker Resort is in Charlotte Harbor. Pt Charlotte actually begins about North on Rt. 41 (Tamiami Trail). Allegiant Airline stop construction a year ago. They are currently looking for a buyer to pick up the pieces. It said that it would only work as a Casino with a Grand Hotel, condo towers with 17 bars and Resturants. IF they build it will you come? The county has spent millions on it now and planned to spend alot more than Allegiant!

Really good day trip video, and point of view about different areas in Port Charlotte. You are doing a far better job explaining residential areas to us than real estate agents do.

Those are the old concrete block houses , built in the 50,s. It was such a major thoroughfare, Charlotte County simply ignored the Public R/W upkeep and the police are very needed in that area, Believe me I lived there from1968 to 1983. It was not ever a pleasant upbringing.
