Pensacola is located on Florida’s Gulf Coast near the Florida/Alabama state line. The Pensacola market has experienced explosive growth in recent years due to the high population growth and strong median income. The strong economy and tourism has fueled the housing and retail demand in Pensacola over recent years. The government has a substantial presence in the metro, with more than 23,000 military and civilian personnel employed at NAS Pensacola, located just miles from the site. The property is in close proximity to the core retail trade area, the airport, hospital, University of West Florida, NAS Pensacola, Whiting Field Naval Base, and the beautiful tourist beach destinations such as Perdido Key, Pensacola Beach, Gulf Breeze, and Navarre Beach.
