dunelover,
That is unfortunate, especially being that you are interested in future purchase.

One of the things that needs to change is the development of more of a middle class white collar job base. Right now, the bulk of that kind of thing in the area is either DoD-related (which comes with some barriers to entry) or real estate-related (which we're now seeing is highly cyclical)
Start getting those kinds of companies in there with $40-$60K a year salaries, and you'll be seeing the $200K-$400K housing market picking right up (I'm assuming a good number of double income families buying homes)
Mouse,
Saw story on Aerospace Integration Corp in Crestview cutting 10% of its workforce last week as a result of last year's buyout by MTC Tech. I'm sure they'll put a positive spin on this saying Florida's unemployment rate is the lowest in the nation...no problem finding jobs here on the panhandle--especially during tourist season.

This bores me. Money is being made and people are working. The end of the world is not here. Yes the nation is distressed in the housing industry. But so is GM, Ford etc and I could go on and on. If you think negative then u r. But the power of commerce in this county has never been challenged and never can be. So Shelly or any others that think that the sun will not rise tomorrow or set please post. I will need to prepare.
The point I was making prior about the Golf Memberships is these were places that were exclusive to get into and it is my belief how ever humble that we as owners have a exclusive place to live here and we should not be so quick to give it away.
