About Niceville and Valparaiso
Niceville and Valparaiso wrap around Boggy Bayou on the north shore of Choctawhatchee Bay, next to Eglin's main gate, with Bluewater Bay to the east. Only 61% of occupied homes here heat with electricity, the lowest share in the metro (Census ACS), so more houses here heat with gas than anywhere else we cover. That changes the repair: an indoor coil sitting on a gas furnace is a different job from an air handler with heat strips. Most of the housing went up from the 1970s through the 1990s, and 78% of homes are owner occupied.
