Life in Destin, FL is a combination of many things. During Spring Break, it’s hectic but still exciting and fun. This is a “destination” city, after all, and attracts people from all over the country thanks to the beautiful Destin beaches and all the fun they provide. In addition, the city has many fantastic festivals during the year and, as you might have guessed already, there are many fun things to do, most connected to beaches and boating.

Real estate in Destin, FL, is one of the significant drawbacks when moving here. Housing prices are about 70% higher than the national average, which is problematic for young families and retirees on a fixed income. Because of the high prices, the cost of living in Destin is almost 21% higher than in similar cities around the U.S. Transportation is the only cost index below the national average. Groceries, healthcare, utilities, and miscellaneous costs are about 5% higher.

Still, if you can afford it, Destin is one of the loveliest towns in the Florida panhandle and offers many exciting things to do, see, enjoy, and eat. (The seafood here is, as they say, off the hook!) The job market is good, although it could be stronger.
