KEY BISCAYNE MAKES PERMANENT TOP FIVE VACATION SPOT LIST

Ritz-Carlton on Key Biscayne Beach

Something that we always knew here has been officially confirmed by experts in the vacation business and that is that Key Biscayne ranks in the top 5 permanent vacation spots in the United States of America. The other four of the top five include Huntington Beach, California; San Clemente, California; Sullivan's Island, South Carolina; and Kailua, Hawaii. Many of us that have lived here for 40 years or more and have traveled the United States and other destinations throughout the world call the Key "home" knowing well that we enjoy the best of every travel amenity as well as every benefit of living in a safe, clean, world class community. This is NOT Miami. This is not the crazy Miami Beach drive through all night party, and this is not the South American Riviera. This is a community that is a cross-section of peoples from all over the world.
Compiling the top five list, Andrew Schiller, president of Location Inc. (TM), a Ph.D. geographer studied America's 61,000 neighborhoods using a proprietary analysis technique that utilizing a vast amount of data using information from a variety of sources including government agencies including the Census Bureau, the Department of Education as well as the records of the FBI (The Federal Bureau of Investigation). Schiller says " Permanent vacation spots are places that combine many vacation qualities, like warm sunny weather, beaches and leisure activities, with solid community attributes like top quality public schools, low crime and educated neighbors".
"This is also the criteria important for many home buyers,especially for those that are owner occupied during a part of the year- in locations known for sun, surf and relaxation"
"People often want to move to a vacation spot, but rarely do these places offer the qualities people look for in a permanent or semi permanent home", said Schiller . " I discovered five great options (including Key Biscayne) for real people that combine the best of both worlds. These top five spots vary in price and character, from quiet communities of shingled homes among sea grass dunes, to high-rise condos, to lively boardwalk scenes, but all five are near major cities, and are delightful places to consider living in as well as top destinations for a mid-winter vacation," said Schiller.
We could not have said it better ourselves, except to add that in another survey of the top 200 communities in which to live in the United States, Key Biscayne is listed, as well as having two of the top 10 beaches in the world.
