Community Information:

Pensacola is located on the westernmost part of the Florida panhandle, surrounded by 50-plus miles of coastline including the Gulf of Mexico and crystal-clear bay areas. It is described as Florida’s Emerald Coast for its emerald-turquoise water, but this part of Florida’s upper Gulf shoreline could be called the “Sugar Coast” for its soft, sugar-white sands. Pensacola is home to the US Navy Blue Angels and was recently ranked #53 in the ‘Top 125 Best Cities to Live in the U.S.’ by U.S. News & World Report. Renowned as one of Florida’s first establishments, history and culture are a big part of this dynamic city. Celebrations of the arts, music, seasonal festivals, cuisine, and nightlife give Pensacola’s residents a unique and diverse lifestyle filled with one of-a-kind experiences for all ages.
