The city of Sarasota, Florida is well known for its art. We have sculptures up all over town, mainly downtown near our library and three points park. Just recently they have put up differently decorated clowns located downtown. I know it sounds weird, but it's actually pretty neat. The clowns are decorated all differently, one has got butterflies all over her dress, another is a ringmaster and there's even one that's really materialistic, with a Gucci hand bag and Chanel sunglasses.
With art, along comes elderly people who retire here for it being a small town and to enjoy the art. Many are tourists here as well. It gets pretty crazy when all of the 'snowbirds', as we call them, come down to enjoy the beautiful sunny weather. It sure makes traffic horrendous, and you have to leave your house about fifteen minutes (give or take depending on how far you are from where you'd like to end up at) before you actually would like to leave in order to get to your destination on time. Most of the tourists and elderly people don't really care for teenagers either. I think this has to do with the stereotypes that ignorant teens make for us.
The beaches here are beautiful as well. I think that Siesta Key beach is on the list of top ten beaches in the United States.
