Ft. Lauderdale is one of my favorite towns, so without further pre-amble..
Fort Lauderdale
Welcome to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida home to
beauty, tourism, and culture! Nearly 185,000 people reside in Ft. Lauderdale
many of which include businessmen, students, and retirees. A census in 2000
found that of 68,400 households, 19.6% of families had children under the age
of 18 living with them, 32% were married couples living together, 11.5% were
single female householders, and nearly 52% were non-family units.
If you enjoy the water and boating, Ft.
Lauderdale is the place for you. This fantastic city is known for its beautiful
beaches and boat shows, and is home to the world’s largest boat show, “Fort
Lauderdale’s International Boat Show.” Ft. Lauderdale is known for its
extensive canals which average over 165 miles worth of waterways within the
city limits. Due to its beautiful beaches, extensive business ties, and diverse
culture, and festivals, this city has raked in over 1.5 billion dollars in 2013
according to the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention & Visitors Bureau! Not
only that, it is the home to the International Swimming Hall of Fame.
There is a lot to do during the day, but
the nightlife is really what attracts the attention of many visitors. The beach
is filled with nightclubs, bars, and restaurants. The combination of beach,
boating, and exciting nightlife make Fort Lauderdale one of the nation’s
biggest tourist spots. And don’t worry, if nightlife isn’t your thing there are
plenty of museums, sports events, and conventions that take place in Ft.
Lauderdale all of the time! It is one of the best places in Florida to own and
run a business due to the high volume of traffic!
