Thank you so much for being honest. A lot of video maker people just say move here, move here, but they don't tell you the truth about those places like you do.

You are right about the food on the beach. Bradenton has some authentic Mexican street food.

I live in south Hillsborough county, one county up (to the north) I commute for work using US 41 to Bradenton. I love it. Jose is right about the traffic, going over the DeSoto bridge, during rush hours, traffic is a bear, but they do have the lights timed well.

It must be a winter thing, but I’ve noticed that traffic can be a bear going north on interstate 75 weekday afternoon and evenings from Naples all the way to the I-275 split. I find that very odd but I suppose it’s all the snowbirds in the area it makes sense.

Also with the easiest airport to get in/out of! ❤️ Back on February 2nd I had only 4 people in front of me waiting to get through security compared to the very long waits at other airports. Exit 213 off of I-75 and only 102 miles from the Naples/Marco Island exit.

Moved to Samoset from Cleveland Ohio and thought we fell of the earth. Very different but it was cool eventually .90’s kids growing up in East Bradenton know about Pirate City , Florida Wheels ,Mixon Fruit Farms , Pirates Cove , Desoto Square Mall, Robby’s Shoe store, Coquina Beach , Southeast Highs School dominating in football, 24th street little league games in the hood. Left Bradenton years ago and would never go back but have a lot of good childhood memories there . East of 75 is much nicer btw I liked living out there a lot better .

Yeah samoset is a very bad inner city area. East of 75 is amazing as well as the islands

GOSH... Thanks a lot for this video. I lived and studied there by 1987. I haven't been back since then. I love Bradenton.

Bradenton is ok, avoid 9th street, 1st street and 14th street near downtown.

Great video Jose! Thank you for taking the time to break it all down.

Housing is too expensive in Bradenton. I moved to Alabama. Born and raised in Bradenton and left at age 40. My house here is 3 times less but is also on an acre of land and traffic is not as bad.Miss Bradenton though

Mobile. No the tornadoes are not that bad although I was lucky that a tornado passed over my house last year, but it didn't touch down.

Coquina Beach is really nice. Also, I like the Pirates Spring Training games since I'm from Pittsburgh.

Very helpful man. Although I’m a bit bummed out. I’m looking to move from CA, and your comments about crime and traffic spook me. I’m looking to get away from that shit! Thanks for your honest opinions. I’ll be out there in about a week. Want to take a look still.

@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I don’t know why you consider palmetto bad. Being from manatee county palmetto isn’t as half as bad as Bradenton. It may just look bad because of the older looking houses in seeing more people outside but it’s not bad as Bradenton . If you know you know

Is there anything but expressways in Bradenton? The entire video is of road!

Your video said Bradenton all your showing is the beach we don’t know who those people are over there. They’re visitors tours.

Clear water beach is beautiful 😍 I think it's becoming over crowded though, so I prefer Gulf Shores instead
