When choosing where to buy your luxury home, you shouldn’t settle for anything less than one of the best communities in the nation. Can you imagine a better place to buy a home than the city named America’s #1 beach town to live in, America’s #2 best small city to live in, as well as the best place for golfers to live in Florida?
Welcome to Naples!
One of the driving factors for living in Naples is the fantastic golfing. It is a dominant part of the city’s appeal. Naples’s first course was carved out in 1919 at a time when only about 100 people lived there. Although Naples is no longer a sleepy fishing village, its golf is as good as ever!
Naples isn’t just the best place to call home for golfers though. The weather, relaxed attitude, low crime rates, and job opportunities all combine to make what we feel is the most livable city in Florida.
However, we don’t want you to just believe us because we said so. We have compiled a list of what makes Naples be above the rest of other Florida cities.

Miami Dade County is a cultural hub in Florida, but it is also one of the most dangerous places in the state. The crime rate in Miami makes it a less than ideal place to retire or bring your family. In 2019, Miami Dade County saw over 13,000 cases of violent crime and just under 87,000 cases of property crime. In 2019, the entirety of Collier County, in which Naples is located, saw less than 94% less violent crime than Miami Dade County and 95% less property crime.

Naples Has Less Traffic than Fort Lauderdale
Fort Lauderdale sits in the middle of a metropolitan area of 5 million people. While the area offers plenty to do, that brings a lot of traffic and congestion with it! When Fort Lauderdale residents were asked about traffic in the area in 2019, 65% of residents said they were dissatisfied with traffic flow in the area.
In Naples, you don’t need to worry about the hubbub of in-town traffic the same way as you would in Fort Lauderdale. If you live at Talis Park most of what you need lies within the community itself, which means your chances of getting stuck in traffic are next to none! The average commute time in Naples is also 27% less than in Fort Lauderdale.

Sadly, the Tampa Bay area has one of the highest rates of pedestrian fatalities in the U.S. From 2012 to 2018, nearly 1,300 people died as a result of motor vehicle crashes in Hillsborough County, where Tampa is located.
In Naples, the numbers are much lower and inside the gates of Talis Park, the community is both walkable and pedestrian-friendly, with pedestrian bridges and walking trails on the luxury property.
