User submitted facts and corrections:
  • Crescent City also has open city hall meetings. Also, there are several PBS stations that broadcast in this area off antennae, WJCT, Jacksonville, WEFM Orlando and DBCC Daytona Community College. Add to that simlar radio reception. A big plus for us and those who are intellectually and open spirited. CC is a quiet, rural area with both very poor and very wealthy. If you like people, volunteering, water recreation, sunshine, a low key life style this is the place for you. CC can be only as good as you make it! Oh, and it is only an hour from pursuits like the opera, concerts, major shopping or "bike fests." added by Lani
