10 Best Places to Live in Florida
Moving to Florida so let’s see what the 10 best places to live in Florida are. Florida is such a large and diverse state of various different economies, weather and life styles. Personally I came to Florida for one reason and it’s the beaches and the water. But if you are looking for affordable living in a warm climate inland Florida offers that. Our three largest counties are Dade, Broward and Palm Beach County. Many new buyers often look at East Coast vs West Coast. City living vs rural living and of course your budget has a lot to do with where you live.
I’ve lived in Florida since 1979 and have seen many changes. I’ve spent some time on the West Coast or our Gulf Coast, The Gold Coast which includes Palm Beach County and North Florida around the Melbourne area. All very different and each has benefits of living there. The West Coast has always been less expensive, pretty white sandy beaches but is more difficult to travel around and gets colder in the winter and hotter in the summer than the East Coast of Florida. The West Coast has a much different feel as well.
I’ve always been an East Coast fan which includes Jupiter, Boca Raton and Palm Beach plus several other cities. More expensive than the West Coast but it offers ease of access, more diverse opportunities and a more robust and active feel. Boca Raton was once a small little town but like most of Florida has grown dramatically. Boca Raton homes near the beach will run somewhere close to a million dollars for an average home. On the opposite end of Palm Beach County you will find Jupiter homes for sale where beach homes will start a tad less than Boca Raton homes. Further North prices will become less, less congested but if you are looking for schools and work you will find less opportunities further North.
