Family friendly places to live around FLL
Considering a move to the FLL base from out of state: what are some family-friendly good public school neighborhoods to consider which are 1h or less from FLL?
Are there any places (e.g. near a nice mall) where kids could walk/bike to school and we wouldn't necessarily have to take the car every time we run an errand?
I know that Hollywood Beach is decent, and I've heard nice things about Boca Raton. Any other suggestions that I could investigate?

How old are your kids? Weston is close and very nice. Parkland second. If you want to live North, Wellington, Palm beach gardens and Jupiter have good schools.
be prepared to pay… it ain’t your grandmas Florida anymore.

I don't know man, if I were married with kids I would seriously consider our MCO base and the central Florida area before looking here. So many more family friendly options up that way, not to mention way more affordable.

Weston, Cooper City, Davie, Southwest Ranches are nice areas. Davie and Southwest Ranches are a bit more spread out and in most cases it won’t be so easy to ride a bike to school unless you live pretty close.

I wouldn’t move to SE Florida with a family these days. Cost of living is very expensive for not much ROI when it comes to QOL outside of work. It really is a lot of the worst of humanity. The weather is miserably hot 10 months of the year. Almost zero green space. Most of the population is completely entitled and complete A-holes

Pretty much all of Broward and Dade county are private school only territory. In palm beach county it’s Boca Raton and Jupiter for good schools.

the A holes in Florida are not from Florida. The good news is they are east to spot. Just look for the Mets/Giants gear. There is a Ton of open space. Plus, central South Florida north of the glades is full of farms and country stuff to do. Not to mention incredible beaches and rivers; this is water sports country. If you can’t square the temps, then that’s a non starter. just like living in the northeast where it’s freezing most of the year with minimal daylight, you get used to it. Very used to it. I get cold below 75 degrees now. It is getting crowded and the cost of living has risen tremendously. I’m not sure where to go to isolate yourself from the last one, but at least we are free people.

Hollywood beach is great for going to the beach, but living there...let's just say it's called "Holly-hood" for a reason

More generally, does anybody have the Base seniority vs Pilot seniority numbers for each base (anonymized obviously) that they'd be willing to share? Something like the following: https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?c...V7WgXkLXAgABxk
