After living in Sarasota County for just about 24 years, we're moving to Lakeland.
Wife found a great job there and she's been working remotely and commuting since January, but the time has come to move. Already secured a job at the Lakeland airport, and are renting a house in Kathleen, so we can move out and sell our Sarasota County house after I finish my current work end of June. Tell me about gun shops, ranges please! Restaurants and other cool spots? I plan on joining the Lakeland rifle and pistol club, finally. And @JJRockBush has been contacted

I avoid Lakeland because I despise crowds and traffic. Lakeland has both.

Combee road after dark can be, how you say, interesting...
 What will you be doing at the airport? Nothing else to add. Congratulations on the move! |

Welcome to Lakeland MW
I moved to the area in 1974. I have seen many changes for sure. I am partial to the South side of town. We lived in the Hallam RD area for over 20 years. Most lots are 1/3 to 1/2 acre. House style varies greatly. It is quiet but you can drive to businesses in minutes and is not far from the airport. They should be done with the Pipkin rd project soon. |

We're renting a house in Kathleen for a year or so, once the house in Venice sells, we're going to start looking here for something to buy. So far we like it, definitely busier and younger than sleepy ole' Venice |
