Summary

Fort Lauderdale is the largest of Broward County's 31 municipalities and the eighth largest city in Florida. Fort Lauderdale has a semi-tropical climate, and its world-famous Fort Lauderdale Beach offers premier opportunities for recreation, relaxation and enjoyment. Through the cooperative efforts of residents, businesses and local government, Fort Lauderdale has evolved into a City that offers the best of both worlds: an attractive business environment and an outstanding quality of life, as well as a natural environment for wildlife… the place where native animals are our neighbors, supported to feel right at home AND where migrating, seasonal visitors are welcomed as our guests.
