Sarasota, Florida is a coastal city on the Gulf Coast in Central Florida and is
located in Sarasota County. Six individual islands line the outskirts of Sarasota,
and it is said that each has its own individual personality. They are nicknamed
the Sarasota Keys, and they include Siesta Key, Lido Key, St. Armands Key, Casey
Key, Otter Key, Coon Key, and Bird Key. In the past, Longboat Key was also considered
a part of the Sarasota area. Visitors and residents alike say that they are some
of the most beautiful beaches in the world. This is not just because of the sand
and calm crisp waters found here, but also because of the elegant dining atmosphere
and contemporary shopping.
With a population of nearly 55,000 individuals within the city limits, Sarasota,
FL is considered a midway point between Tampa and the Fort Meyers area. This allows
the city to have the access to big city conveniences, while living the small town
life. As is the case with many Florida cities, it is fairly new in its geographical
boundaries--only being established in 1986.
