The first time I drove through Palm City nearly ten years ago I knew it was where I wanted to buy my Florida home. As a transplant from suburban New Jersey I was seeking a family friendly town with tree lined streets, sidewalks, parks and the sense of community I enjoyed back home. I have not given it much thought since my move to Palm City in 2002, but was reminded of these qualities this week after several buyers made nearly identical comments while I showed them area homes and neighborhoods.
As we pulled into town off the I95 interchange, the first thing my clients saw was children playing and riding bikes. They were pleasantly surprised to see this and were excited to discover our little town. The scene was repeated later that day with my next clients. We arrived about 3PM and on queue kids poured out of school, gathering in groups for their walk home (not a common site in Florida where children are mostly bussed to and from school). My clients were further impressed to see people strolling, shopping and enjoying a snack at a local cafe. While touring Palm City's homes and leafy neighborhoods they decided this was where they wanted to raise their family.
