When my family moved there from Miami in 1972 it was a one stop light, one high school, one cop car two bar town. There was less than a hundred students in my graduating class which means there were less than a hundred kids my own age. Everybody knew everybody.
Today southwest Florida has lost that quaintness as development has merged Naples to Ft. Myers to the north. It's getting to look more and more like Miami / Ft. Lauderdale. It's still a beautiful place and well worth a visit but the laid back lifestyle has long gone.
