Longtime area homeowners can’t afford to move

“I have been in my Cape Coral home 24 years,” said Carol Glazer, who opted for a major renovation over a move.
She couldn’t find another house where she wanted to live in Cape Coral that “was enough to my liking to justify in my mind the huge increase in property tax I would have to pay,” she said.
