What it’s like to live in Lido Key
Beachfront living dazzles with sugar-white sands and St. Armands Circle shopping. Tourist crowds overwhelm parking March-July - bike to Lido Beach Resort tiki bars instead. Mandatory hurricane shutters block Gulf views June-November.

What it’s like to live in Arlington Park
Historic charm defines Arlington Park, where mid-century homes surround one of Sarasota's most beloved neighborhood parks with its popular community pool and tennis courts. The district sits perfectly positioned between downtown Sarasota cultural attractions and Sarasota Memorial Hospital, creating reasonable access to both employment centers and weekend entertainment without excessive travel in either direction. Though some properties show their age with vintage systems requiring occasional maintenance, the established tree canopy provides natural beauty and cooling shade during Florida summers – advantages impossible to replicate in newer developments with recently planted landscaping. The neighborhood's central location and walkable park access create compelling value compared to higher-priced downtown or waterfront alternatives despite similar urban amenities.

What it’s like to live in Main Street Merchants
Downtown energy defines Main Street/Merchants, where Sarasota's central district offers urban living with Gulf Coast character. Apartments range from renovated historic buildings to luxury new construction with water views and resort-style amenities. The neighborhood provides walking access to dozens of restaurants, galleries, and theaters in Florida's cultural capital, though rental rates reflect the premium location and seasonal tourism creates occasional congestion during winter months.
