Former Resident: So this place is really quiet and full of retired people. You need to know this before you go there as a family but you can drive to Boca or Delray to meet people or get services.... Read 20 reviews

Current Resident: I love Boca Raton! Everything from the atmosphere to the people; it is one of my favourite places in the world. Boca is not only home to beautiful landscapes and amazing things to do; such as, state of the art shopping malls! But it is also home to breath taking sunsets and sunrises! Restaurants are next level in Boca with every type of cuisine you could possibly imagine. From small local restaurants to Michelin stars, Boca Raton has them all! My favourite thing to do in Boca is taking walks or biking through the many different parks around the city! Everything is always so well maintained which makes the idea of getting some fresh air very inviting! If you ever get the opportunity to visit Boca, don’t miss out! It has everything you could ever want and more!... Read 518 reviews

Current Resident: This is a great community and the people here for the most part are friendly (except for the occasional neighbors you wanna avoid). It's really pretty here too, with a lot of land and nature, there's also a beautiful state park close by. Even better, there's a little shopping center in the entrance to the farms that has Publix, a couple small restaurants, among other things. People mainly keep to themselves from what I've experienced, but there are ways for you to get involved with people in the community. I have also had zero safety issues, so that's a plus....

Current Resident: Wellington is one of the best places i've ever lived in Florida. Living in Wellington offers residents a suburban for families and children and most residents own their homes. In Wellington there are a lot of parks and wildlife. Many families live in Wellington ,and residents tend to have conservative views. Wellington is a very small town.I like it because it's very quiet. Everyone in the area keeps to themselves and you don't hear about much crime or issues. There is a lot of wildlife if you're near a lake and there has been a record of gators in lakes, but that comes with the territory of living in south Florida. The diversity is average and i wouldn't expect much out of it. And for those interested Wellington is known for its equestrian community and events, like show jumping , dressage , and polo. Its most popular event is WEFF. This also attracts a lot of international people so Wellington has man international tourist that come for the events. Overall Wellington is a good city....

Current Resident: Nestled in between the booming West Palm Beach and the slower life-style of Jupiter, Florida lies the Village of North Palm Beach. On most mornings and weekends, you can see many people enjoying their time riding their bikes, taking a jog or just simply enjoying the outdoors. Seeing kids play in their front yards with parents and neighbors wave at every pass-by gives a strong sense of community. Since the area is flooded with families, the schools are at the top tier. It is a big boating community given the easy access to intercoastal and the Atlantic Ocean giving people a chance to experience fishing and relaxation. Since nightlife is low, it does keep the area a safe place for residents. If one does crave a night out on the town, West Palm Beach is only 25 minutes away and has a lot to offer linking one of a kind restaurants and bars. Currently, the real estate market is at it's all time high. I wouldn't trade life in North Palm Beach for anything in the world!... Read 12 reviews

Current Resident: Delray Beach is a great up and coming town! I've lived here my whole life and it's always been great--great food, shopping, weather, and beach--but over the last few years it's really been picking up in population size. In certain areas you feel like you're in a small town, while in others you feel like you're in a city. Delray is a great place to start a business, go to school, raise a family, or even just vacation to. We have a beautiful beach, lots of fine dining downtown, and lots of adorably quaint boutiques and shops.... Read 230 reviews

Current Resident: I moved to S Palm last year after living in Ft Lauderdale for many years. The area feels very safe and the people are friendly. There are many places to dine and I love the new Publix grocery store at the corner of Ocean and Lantana. Overall, I’d give S Palm Beach an A+!... Read 3 reviews

Current Resident: My experience here at Palm Club Village has been extremely memorable. The environment here is very peaceful and calm with also multiple paths that you can take to go walking on, along with multiple pool areas and even Tennis courts. The neighborhood consists of regular houses, with garages, and apartments. Not all of the houses have a view of a lake, but for the most part, if you were to live in an apartment, like me, then you would endure a comfortable and beautiful view of a lake with a fountain of water at both ends, these fountains also light up at night and display an array of different colors. As an addition to living in Palm Club, the residents are really good people. They watch out for each other, which makes living here feel even better. In conclusion, my neighborhood is a great place to live. There isn't a lot of noise, it is secure, and most of all, the neighbors are helpful. I can actually say that there is no place like home when it comes to Palm Club Village.... Read 1 review

Current Resident: Juno Beach is quiet, safe, and community oriented. The beaches are beautiful, and we have some nice parks and trails. As for shopping and food, it’s a bit lacking in Juno Beach proper; the majority of the time I drive to Palm Beach Gardens and Jupiter to do most things, but both are very close by and convenient. There are, however, some gems such as Juno Beach Cafe, Hurricane Cafe, and Tiramisu. I enjoy the laid back atmosphere that is hard to come by in the Miami metropolitan area.... Read 3 reviews
