Tradition has well regarded research and medical facilities in place although
VGIT Florida, a nonprofit biomedical research institute, has closed.

Tradition Medical Center has 90 beds for in-house patients and a state-ofthe
art emergency care center.
The retail area is condensed and many residents tend to
stay within the community so there seems to be a greater
bond between store owners and their customers.
“We were the very first business to open up in the square,”
says Gina Grothe at the Sanctuary Spa at Tradition. “When
we were scouting locations we knew we had to be here. It is
so quaint and for us our clients are also our neighbors. We see
them out shopping with their kids or walking every day.”
A QUIETER LIFESTYLE
Residents move here not just because of the housing opportunities
and convenience but also because there is so much
to do within their complexes. Many of the subdivisions have
like-minded residents who form clubs and interest groups
within their community. Several have baseball clubs that
travel to the Mets games in St. Lucie West or golf enthusiasts
who religiously attend all the PGA Village professional tournaments
just a short drive away.
“We wanted to live in an over-55 community in Florida
so we Googled all of them and found Tradition,” says Becky
Sanderoff who moved from Maryland with her husband to
Vitalia at Tradition four months ago. “Everything is very
convenient here and we liked the community concept. Within
Vitalia we have lots of clubs …Club Ameci, which is an
Italian lovers club; there is a music lovers club, a tiki bar on
Sundays, a Sunset Night to watch the sunsets over the water
and we already have tickets with the baseball club to see the
Mets spring training.” >>
