MONEY MAGAZINE HAS CALLED SARASOTA, FLORIDA "AMERICA'S BEST SMALL CITY," AND EVERY YEAR, THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE RELOCATE TO THIS BEAUTIFUL JEWEL ON FLORIDA'S GULF COAST.

One reason they come is because Sarasota offers big-city amenities while retaining its small-town charm. The city is the cultural capital of Florida, home to the Sarasota Orchestra, the Asolo Repertory Theatre, the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, and the world-famous Ringling College of Art and Design, as well as dozens more theaters and art galleries. Downtown Sarasota offers a wide variety of shops and boutiques, restaurants, and nightclubs. Music, arts, and film festivals are sponsored throughout the year.

Dozens of public and private golf courses offer challenges to players at every level of skill and on every budget. Many of the private courses are also part of golf-centered communities with a choice of homes and condominiums. Tennis players here also have their choice from dozens of public and private courts. Thirty-five miles of beaches (including the beautiful Siesta Key) provide beach-goers and sun-worshipers with the world's whitest sand and most spectacular sunsets. Fishermen, divers, and boaters will find an assortment of deep-water marinas and yacht clubs. Enthusiasts can pursue any and every kind of water sport from skiing to windsurfing to parasailing and more.

Sarasota residents are only two hours from Disney World, Universal Studios, and the other famous Orlando attractions, and they're only an hour away from the Tampa Bay Rays, Buccaneers, and Lightning home games.
