One of the best cities in the Greater Fort Lauderdale area to live, work and play!
Welcome to the City of Deerfield Beach!
Located on the beautiful east coast of southern Florida in Broward County. With a population of 76,000 residents Deerfield Beach is the tenth largest city in the county.
This city is a vibrant coastal community named for the numerous deer that once roamed the area. Within Deerfield Beach’s 15 square miles of land lies a unique mix of urban and suburban living complete with a well-balanced indus- trial and commercial population.
The northernmost city in Broward County is home to Florida Atlantic University Research Center, People’s Trust Insurance, JM Family Enterprises, Southeast Toyota, a major Publix distribution center and other national and international businesses. There are public and private schools in the area and a world-class healthcare facility (Broward Health North Hos- pital) located south of the city.
There is a great assortment of housing located throughout Deerfield Beach, from waterfront property to suburban developments and affordable rentals.
Year round tropical weather makes Deerfield Beach one of the most attractive places in the U.S. to call “Home,” but the low cost of living is also a perk.
The city boasts about having the best waves for surfing and body boarding. Deerfield Beach is a well-known surf community. Its waterways make Deerfield Beach a boaters dream and the International Fishing Pier is an Anglers paradise.
Waterfront eateries provide the freshest seafood in Broward County and the best live music entertainment. There are acres of city parks, the Arboretum Tree Zoo and a calendar packed with free festivals and concerts year round.
Deerfield Beach, it’s where South Florida Begins!
