Is there adequate orthodontists in the area? Also, my kids will be 13 and 10, so we would have one in the high school and one in elementary school. Are the schools good?Moving to Naples, Italy. How's orthodontics there, and how are the schools?2018-05-14T08:02:21-04:00Maj Kevin Dugan, ORSA, PMP, PCEA3626143<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Got a job offer for a GS job in Naples.

It is a small base/station and does not have the facilities to handle non active duty issues. I take it you will be working at the Nato base here in Lago Patria, and I can tell you with confidence that living here is amazing, We have been here since November and I can honestly tell you I have never had a bad meal on the economy. I will warn you that there will be a culture shock, Naples is not the cleanest city, and the roads, minus the autostrade, are horrible. Also , if you have a large vehicle, I suggest you leave it in the states, and buy one on this side - the roads are crazy narrow and all have two way traffic on them. Other then that - welcome to Italy, you will have a great experience visiting some cultural sites and ruins. Do not let the on post school situation deter you - there are plenty of Italian schools that teach in English, I would say about half the American population here send there children to off post schools.Response by SSG Robert Perrotto made May 14 at 2018 8:29 AM2018-05-14T08:29:02-04:002018-05-14T08:29:02-04:00Capt Brandon Charters3626954<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I know <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="130182" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/130182-col-patrick-charters">Col Patrick Charters</a> has spent some good time in Naples and might have some insight here.Response by Capt Brandon Charters made May 14 at 2018 1:18 PM2018-05-14T13:18:48-04:002018-05-14T13:18:48-04:00HN Alyssa Sattler3653146<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I had braces while there (2010-2012).
