Even repeat buyers are being priced out of Lee and Charlotte. Only Collier remains barely within reach, and even that is slipping.

Dear Voters of Lee, Charlotte, and Collier Counties

Turning Ideals Into Action for a More Sustainable Naples

Sustainability is not a trend or a marketing term. It is a civic mindset grounded in stewardship, accountability, and community.
