Englewood is a small, unique town on the Gulf of Mexico between her two larger sister cities Sarasota and Ft. Myers, which contributes to Englewood's uniqueness. Not just a great place for active retirees, but a wonderful environment for growing families as well. The beach, boating, fishing, great schools, libraries, new, large YMCA and so much more. It's a relaxed Florida lifestyle conducive to peaceful co-existence with its abundant wildlife - Egrets, Sand cranes, seagulls, pelicans, dolphins, Manatees, and, of course, alligators. Someone once paraphrased Englewood by describing it as a "Small drinking town with a fishing problem"! True or not, Englewood definitely IS a great place to enjoy life. FLORIDA life, that is!
