Our Take

Pace is a suburban neighborhood on the outskirts of Pensacola. It has a small-town feel and a relatively affordable cost of living, with a median home price significantly lower than surrounding areas. However, Pace lacks walkability and public transportation, making a car necessary for most errands.
