Fort Lauderdale is home to about 160,000 residents and only about 20% of households have children under the age of 18. This may be due in part to the high density condo population around the Las Olas, Downtown and Fort Lauderdale Beach areas.
Fort Lauderdale is known as the “Venice of America” for its expansive and intricate system of over 300 miles of canals. It is truly a boater’s paradise and a city recognized worldwide for providing a haven for boaters of all types. From owners of seafaring private yachts to private boaters with more modest crafts, to the tens of thousands of tourists who leave from here annually for a cruise through Port Everglades – the water is what Fort Lauderdale is all about. In fact you can travel between restaurants and shopping centers, or to a number of nighttime hotspots, all aboard Fort Lauderdale’s Water Taxi service.
Just because this is the ideal boating location, don’t think that Fort Lauderdale comes up short in land-based activities. It is home to the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, Florida Grand Opera, Fort Lauderdale Children’s Theater and the Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival.
For those with a taste for nightlife, Fort Lauderdale will not disappoint. Known as a happening destination around the world, Fort Lauderdale will surely provide the perfect entertainment spot for you. You can live within walking distance of Las Olas Boulevard, a shopping and dining Mecca that people travel from around the world to take in. Or maybe you're more interested in living within walking distance of beachfront restaurants with an ocean view.
Fort Lauderdale Beach provides residents with 23 miles of award-winning clean beaches that are safe for any family. The unique Fort Lauderdale Beach Promenade provides a safe area specifically for walking, jogging, roller-skating, or biking, all in a waterfront setting. Gourmet restaurants and trendy nightspots are just a short walk across A1A and also provide a seemingly endless ocean view.
The Fort Lauderdale International Airport (FLL) is just minutes from anywhere within the city limits and various airlines provide convenient flights to just about anywhere residents may need to go.
