The laid back town of Osprey, Florida, the site of the irreplaceable outdoor museum Historic Spanish Point, is located at the same latitude -- 27 degrees -- as Dibrugarh, India.
Home to 6,100 people at the time of the 2010 Census, Osprey is a small town steeped in history and culture. More accurately, it is not actually an incorporated town at all, but rather a census-designated place within the limits of Sarasota County.
Commuting?
Osprey is a beautiful place to live, but it is small, and as with most small towns, that means a limited number of jobs across a limited number of industries. Unless you already have a job lined up or you're retiring, it is not unlikely that you will have to commute the 22 minutes to nearby Sarasota. Make sure you allow for a potential commute in your budget.
Research neighborhoods
Most homes are owned, not rented, so this will make finding rental housing in Osprey more challenging than in many places. That said, some neighborhoods have a higher proportion of rental property versus owned property so that will help guide you where to look.
There are a variety of different neighborhoods that you may want to check out to find yourself a nice little studio for rent, or perhaps look around for a three-bedroom house for rent in Osprey. Here are a few to get you started:
Stoneybrook Golf and Country Club: Stoneybrook is a suburban gated community with its own 18-hole golf course, swimming pools, tennis courts and a fitness centre.
Oaks: Oaks is one of the largest, yet least crowded, neighborhoods in Osprey. Bimini Bar and Grill, and Casey Key Fish House are in this area.
Sarabay Acres: Like Oaks, Sarabay Acres is a semi-rural neighborhood that is larger than most in Osprey, and like Oaks, it isn't crowded despite the size of its population. Unlike Oaks, there is more rental housing available than in many areas around Osprey, and at a more reasonable cost. You might be able to find rental condos here.
Osprey is a small town, but there is still plenty on offer. It is a beach town in sunny Florida, with all the sun, sea, sand and laid back lifestyle that entails. It is also the site of Historic Spanish Point, an outdoor museum comprised of 30 historical, archaeological acres, an experience not to be missed. And while you're at it, don't miss Oscar Scherer State Park, a nature reserve home to several threatened species; the park offers several great options for weekend activities, such as cycling the Legacy Trail (mountain bikes recommended!), fishing in the park's freshwater lake, or picnicking with friends or family. For a great seafood meal, you can't go past Casey Key Fish House, a relaxed open-air restaurant right on the waterfront; their key lime pie is, by all reports, to die for. Or for some classic American fare, come down to Roessler's on Vamo Way -- a little pricier and more upmarket, but worth it! And finally, check out Sarasota's "Irish gastropub," PUB32, that serves true blue English-style fish 'n chips, has live music most nights and a decent selection of ales!
