St. Augustine is nice. If I’m not mistaken, the MR there is about $100/mo. I think it’s about $250/mo at Soleil. Soleil has slightly newer homes. I think Soleil has pretty high HOA, too. I think you get their pool/rec center as part of that though.
I’m not sure why flu says the 56 area is in the middle of nowhere. It’s pretty close to the freeways and shopping. And if you’re going anywhere east, it’s pretty convenient. The 5 is about three miles away after you’re on the 56.
Soleil is 3 1/2 to 4 miles from the ocean; St. Augustine is 2 1/2 miles. It’s a bit hotter in the summer, but not much. I think it’s colder in the winter, though, both because it’s a bit farther from the ocean and it’s down in a valley.
St Augustine is up high, which I think is nice. It feels better to me than being down in the valley. Could just be me, though.
