Tropical Paradise You've Never Heard About! 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 28, 2018) I loved being transferred to Florida for my business, but I did not want to buy a house in Miami because it is too congested with tourists for me.

Living in Westwood Lakes is f ...Read More ar away from the crazy times at Miami, yet I get to enjoy the peace and quiet in my own tropical world.

I can get to work from Westwood Lakes in less than 15 minutes, and I have my pick of white-sand beaches up and down the Atlantic coast. This week I spent the day at Virginia Key, and next week we are taking a drive down the Seven Mile Bridge to Key West.

The weather is warm here all year, and the best areas in Westwood Lakes for me are the diverse shopping opportunities. I can spoil myself down on Ocean Drive, or drive up I-95 to a number of premium outlet malls. Read Less
