Where else would you live?
I think you list the things that you require of a community. Then go find it. I keep doing that and realize that I'm there. I only wish that I had bought a place on the water, rather than one very close to the water.
I lived in Pensacola on Perdido Key (I think every house or condo is on the water) for a number of years, and loved it. However, the hurricane's have put that little piece of heaven under water a time or two. Also I lived there when there were only a few condo's, now, it is overbuilt........................ck

Island Park, Idaho - 4 miles under Montana. 20 minutes from the town of West Yellowstone and the National Park. An hour from Big Sky Montana. An hour west of Jackson Hole Wyoming. 7000 foot elevation. I was so impressed with the area when I went through on a trip that I went back 4 times until I found a 2 story log cabin in the woods to buy. Now I go when ever I can. Summer highs are in the low 80's and the nights between 45 to 50 average. There is very little humidity so 82 feels like 72 and it has to get below 50 before you need a jacket. Hard to believe until you are there. The people are as friendly as the nicest person you have ever met. Crime is almost nonexistent and most people don't ever lock their doors. It is a world class fly fishing destination with the Henry's Fork, Buffalo, Snake, Big Springs, and Warm Rivers all running through town and the Henry"s Lake and Island Park Reservoir also there. The Yellowstone, Gallatin, Madison, and several other rivers are within a half hour drive. If you are into nature or senic photography, it doesn't get any better. In the winter time it has more groomed snow mobile trails than anywhere in the U.S. and fantastic cross country skiing. There are 3 down hill skiing resorts withinn an hour drive. It this link works, there are a few quick pics from a couple of weeks ago.

Sun) a couple of beers with the boys a little shepshead and reds from the winter low potholes and we're off to the Bahamas flyfishing for Bones.
