Palm Beach County
Six cities, side by side
These are the cities I work in most. Each figure below is for property inside the city limits, from the association’s municipal report, the Property Appraiser’s millage table and FEMA’s flood-rating list — with the period and the source named. Pick a city for its full guide.

Compared
City limits, not mailing addresses. The market figures below are for properties inside the city limits. A mailing address that says this city is not proof a property is inside them: large areas west of most Palm Beach County cities are unincorporated county land, with county rather than city taxes, permitting and services. The Property Appraiser's record for a parcel shows its municipality. For scale, the countywide single-family median for Q3 2026 was $655,000 (+5.6%) and unincorporated Palm Beach County is a FEMA CRS Class 5 community.
