“I think Bonita is a very clean city, and people in general are pretty friendly. Take the kids to the beach to walk. This is a very touristy area with lots of things to do, mainly relating to the water.”

“[We] love the area and the beaches here, especially the beaches!!! We stroll them every weekend as we work all week. We live in the most wonderful neighborhood where it is quiet and peaceful and our neighbors are so friendly. We love our house here, it is open, airy and spacious. There are some parks here but the beach is so wonderful I would think the kids would love it there the best and because it is the gulf the waves are very mild.”
