I was born and raised here in Fort pierce. Always going fishing with family. It is usually sunny with humidity. I would choose to live here again because it is my home town. To me this area is a 10 and the future is bright for us.

People have lived here for generations and the older families have the large acreage groves outside of town. Those who moved here as transients came from the NY/NJ cities for the most part and created little rural city like communities.

Unemployment is high and wages are low. The community leaders get these whims and recruit local business to try to help. The last whim resulted in a bankrupt corporation leaving the city with a 1 million dollar loss.
