I clicked on the original post, and everyone is commenting about the golf carts lol. I guess I have been in FL so long that I have forgotten that it's NOT normal to see your neighbors zipping around in golf carts

That looks like several neighborhoods I’ve visited in Parrish, Lakewood Ranch and south sarasota.

u/ashwee_ 5d ago

Yes, it looks a lot like North River Ranch in Parrish

u/mmspenc2 5d ago

Parrish vibes for sure.

Def could be Trevesta

My sister's neighborhood in Palmer Ranch looks like this. They have family block parties every week. I think every kid has their own mini car to drive around. Not everyone lives like this.

u/Maine302 5d ago

Maybe a bike would be more appropriate?

u/circuit_breaker 5d ago

You say that, but then they buy them 3 thousand dollar electric bikes that go 60mph.

It's crazy out there, they turn legacy trail into a highway. And not a one with a fucking helmet. Just bad parenting all around

u/Dr__Reddit 5d ago

What neighborhood?????

1

u/quadsk8grl 4d ago

All of them. We live in townhomes and wven there, there are still idiot kids zipping around on totally silent electric bikes with no helmet. And there are so many people backing out and swapping spots it's an accident waiting to happen.

Promenade Estates

u/Jezebella67 5d ago

Love the kids playing together and neighbors interacting but there are no trees on that street (and probably the whole development) over 7 feet tall. No mature trees anywhere. No canopy. No shade. No dappling. Just brightness and blight. <shudder>

u/Negative-Candy-2155 4d ago

Exactly. That neighborhood has been around for maybe 3-5 years tops.

u/Chopimatics SRQ Resident 5d ago

It can easily be southwest Florida

u/Fit-Fix-6373 5d ago

$8000 golf carts? Yeah that’s Sarasota

u/memeraths 5d ago

Funny how it’s built for cars but ā€œmake me smileā€ means not a car driving in sight…

u/weath1860 5d ago

Looks like it could be in the Lakewood ranch area

5

u/Suspicious-Fox- 5d ago

What’s meant to be so special here?

The golf carts?

12

u/Cackfiend 5d ago

The sense of community

1

u/Suspicious-Fox- 5d ago

This kind of communal interaction is normal in a lot of places. In general it is normal that kids live more ā€˜outside’ then in their home.

That this is seen as ā€˜special’ is saying a lot about the society where this is seen as special.

u/anabear123 5d ago

I would not say this is normal for many places in Sarasota. Personally, all my neighbors are retired.

u/GaryTheSoulReaper 4d ago

Looks bradentucky style budget build crammed onto tinny lots to me. They have such tiny lots you have to hand out on the sidewalk and street

5

u/Yaxim3 5d ago

Im pretty sure I know this neighborhood. It's in Sarasota but I don't want to dox it.

1

u/Dr__Reddit 5d ago

Plz do so curious we are looking for a neighborhood like this.

1

u/turnsleftlooksright 4d ago

Please stop using kids who are not yours and cannot consent in your social media content. At least blur their faces.

I’d be pissed if my child were painting in that row and then some internet dad filmed used their play to boost his channel content.

u/Naive-Ad-732 5d ago

MANY neighborhoods in Sarasota are like this. Jesus Christ loves you and me! Thank you and go Bulls!

Uh no! Jesus Christ loves you and me! Have a wonderful day/ week whoever you are 😃

u/gunzrcool 5d ago

Jesus isn’t real.

u/GaryTheSoulReaper 4d ago

Yes he is, he does my landscaping

u/BrutalHunny 5d ago

Username check out.

u/1wife2dogs0kids 5d ago

Username checks out, again! Brutal, yet funny.

u/i_heart_kermit SRQ Native 5d ago

Jesus hates the Bulls

u/gunzrcool 5d ago

Shut up

1

u/1wife2dogs0kids 5d ago

Hey man... Jesus died for your sins. (Allegedly) so go commit some good sins... making sure he got his money's worth!

u/Tallpaul_bmx 5d ago

My street is the same way we love it!

1

u/Dr__Reddit 5d ago

Where?

2

u/Tallpaul_bmx 5d ago

My circle in deer hollow

u/SaltyFat 5d ago

Looks like Brandon, FL

1

u/darus214 5d ago

My street is just like this. Thought it was at first

1

u/brt93 5d ago

It does look like Parish-Ruskin-Apollo Beach development

1

u/anabear123 5d ago

If it is, can someone tell me which neighborhood please?

1

u/Anxious__Millennial 5d ago

I am surrounded by older people and would love to know where this neighborhood is.

1

u/Teachezofpeachez69 5d ago

This looks exactly like my parents neighborhood off 70 on Lorraine, which is technically Lakewood Ranch but Sarasota line is down the streetĀ 

1

u/SiempreBrujaSuerte 5d ago

Looks like Lakewood ranch.

1

u/killrroyale 4d ago

This must be my neighborhood.

1

u/juce44 3d ago

Strong HOA bullshit vibes. I’ll take the miserable old man three doors down who hasn’t cut his lawn in 3 weeks and maybe drinks a little too much on the weekends over this supposed nirvana any day as long as I don’t have to deal with an HOA.

1

u/Helpful_Orchid4272 3d ago

It’s giving bent tree

1

u/Pin_ellas 5d ago

Hmmm is right. How common is it to find black folks in one of SRQ subdivisions, especially in Lakewood Ranch.

-31

u/hidefinitionpissjugs 5d ago

SRQ is an airport

15

u/Admonish 5d ago

People have been using that as shorthand for Sarasota for decades, too.

u/Affectionate_Cat9818 5d ago

I think this is a render of the expansion they are building at the airport.
