  THE COMMUNITY

 

One of the few carefully planned cities in the United States, this beautiful town is artistically landscaped with palms, flowers, silver trumpet trees, live oaks and pines.  It is now a Florida Main Street City, a designation awarded by the State of Florida for Historic Preservation.  From a small fishing village to a destination for vacationers, a haven for retirees and young families alike, it has evolved into a thriving town.

 

County schools received the top ranking of ?Gold Medal?, earning a place among the top 17 percent of 2,800 U.S. school districts surveyed by Expansion Management magazine. The county was the only school district in Florida to receive the gold medal rating, according to survey results published in the magazine?s December 2004 issue.  Money Magazine placed this county's schools in the "Top 100 in the Nation." It also named the"21st Best Place to Live in the U.S." and one of the "Top 20 Places to Retire."

.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics ranked the area "3rd in the Nation in Job Growth."

 

The area offers a diversity of neighborhoods to suit every taste and budget, each with a unique personality. Residents enjoy all the hospitality of a small town combined with the amenities and modern infrastructure of a large city.  The County?s economy remains strong overall as indicated by steady job growth, low unemployment and increasing wages, according to a report released recently by the Economic Development Corporation (EDC). From 2002 to September 2005, the region gained approximately 30,000 jobs, exceeding the state and U.S. job growth rates for that period.
