Fort Lauderdale Offers a Unique Blend of Big City Life and Exotic Tropical Living

Beach

Fort Lauderdale is a busy city in south Florida that is known for its Riverwalk Arts & Entertainment District that runs along Las Olas Blvd. This district boasts many museums and anchors the city from the beach to downtown. Culture, beach-side entertainment, and downtown shopping make the city a busy place to live, and finding something to do any day of the week is as easy as going downtown.

Education in Fort Lauderdale is first class and easy to access with the city-wide transportation system. There is a bus system, four railroads, and a streetcar system called the Wave to provide commuters safe transportation to jobs and schools. There are nine colleges available in Fort Lauderdale including the prestigious Broward College and the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale.

Fort Lauderdale is so much more than just the rush of a city. Within the city is Hugh Taylor Birch State Park, a get away from the rush. Just a short drive away, is Everglades National Forest which is the third largest national park in the lower 48 states. The park takes up the majority of the tip of south Florida and will provide endless exploration for the nature minded. Or you could take a charter boat to the ocean and fish for your own Mahi-Mahi!

The flora and fauna in south Florida means your backyard or deck can boast year round orange trees, pineapple plants, tomatoes, verdant grass and plants. The Cuban Anoles, and Iguanas are easy to get used to and many residents even keep some vegetables on hand to offer to the larger reptiles when they come by! Life in south Florida is different than life anywhere else on the planet. Your next door neighbor on one side may be from Italy and the other from Brazil. Your boss may be a snow bird who only comes down in the winter from Iowa. The size of your town may go from back to back traffic in the winter to a little less busy in the off season. You will not be an outsider for long when you move into a southern town, and soon you will be part of the ebb and flow, meeting new snow birds, feeding the wildlife, and enjoying the never-ending nightlife.
