Known as the "Venice of America" due to its intricate canal system, Fort Lauderdale, Florida lies within Broward County. It has a population of approximately 167,000 and is the seventh largest city in Florida.
In recent years, Fort Lauderdale has become a world-class international business center. While it used to rely mainly on tourism for its economy, several new industries have sprung up, including:
- Manufacturing
- Finance
- Insurance
- High technology
- Avionics/aerospace
- Film and television production
The Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Miami Beach metropolitan area has an average per capita income of $34,278, 4% above the national average. Better still, this per capita income has an average annual growth rate of 8.9%, which is 19% higher than the national average.
For relaxation, the Fort Lauderdale Beach has been completely renovated in recent years and now includes wide walkways, extensive landscaping, and even a "wave wall" with neon lighting. Fort Lauderdale actually has seven miles of beaches and 165 miles of local waterways, so most of the population enjoys water sports all year round. And the Fort Lauderdale Riverwalk is known as "Florida's Most Beautiful Mile" with its collection of boutiques, restaurants, and museums interspersed with tropical scenery, picnic areas, and a butterfly garden.
