About Coral Springs, FL
Coral Springs is a planned suburb in northwest Broward County, Florida, United States, sitting at the edge of the Everglades about 40 kilometers north of Miami and 30 kilometers west of Fort Lauderdale. Population is about 130,000, and the city was developed from scratch starting in the 1960s by the Coral Ridge Properties company on former drained wetland, producing the unusually consistent grid layout and uniform commercial signage rules that still distinguish it today. The economy mixes professional services, healthcare, and retail tied to the broader South Florida metro, with a notably well-rated public school system that draws families. Climate is tropical wet-and-dry with hot humid summers, mild dry winters, and significant hurricane exposure. Cost of living and housing run below central Miami and Fort Lauderdale but have risen sharply with broader South Florida pandemic-era migration from the Northeast.
