Living in Lake Worth, FL

Moving to Lake Worth will give you the opportunity to take advantage of some of its excellent amenities, like water sports, food, and art scene, all of which are rated highly by the locals.

Unfortunately, you'll also have to deal with the occasional hurricane, but that's true of anywhere in Florida. And Lake Worth has the benefit of being somewhat protected by a lagoon, plus the city's infrastructure and services are designed to minimize damage and facilitate evacuation, if needed.

For such a small city, Lake Worth has an incredibly diverse population, including Native American, African, Guatemalan, Cuban, Haitian, and Finnish residents.

Things to do in Lake Worth

The city has plenty of high school and college athletics to enjoy, and it's also just a short trip from some great pro sports. Miami is home to its own NBA, NFL, and MLB teams. Pretty much everyone in Lake Worth roots for the Marlins, Dolphins, and Heat.

You’ll also have tons of shopping options here. Downtown Lake Worth is a haven of art galleries, restaurants, and specialty stores. And then there's high-end fashion and jewelry available in the Worth Avenue shopping district in nearby Palm Beach. Plus a huge outlet shopping center, Wellington Green, is just a short drive away.

If you're in search of a great family outing, a day at the lagoon is a good bet. There are places to launch a boat, picnic facilities, and countless water sports to enjoy.

Of course, if you don’t mind a brief road trip, Walt Disney World is just a few hours away in Orlando. It’s a complex of several massive amusement parks that has been delighting the young and old alike for decades.

Or for something a little cheaper and more educational, check out the Lake Worth Historical Museum. It documents the history of the region, with exhibits going all the way back to the pioneer days.

The city also offers plenty of parks for both visitors and residents. Bryant Park and Bryant Park South are both located on the Intercoastal Waterway. They provide boat ramps, grills, and playgrounds. A little further inland is Howard Park, which features picnic facilities, playgrounds, a baseball field, and basketball and tennis courts.

But perhaps the biggest park is the oceanside Lake Worth Casino Beach Complex. There you’ll find beach access, playgrounds and picnic tables, with lifeguards on duty during the day.

Couples will find tons to keep them busy in Lake Worth. You can enjoy a romantic movie together at the AMC Starplex Cinema or dinner and shopping at the Lake Worth Casino Complex. Although the original casino now serves as a venue for weddings and other celebrations, it dates back to the early 20th century and has been completely renovated into a modern shopping and social destination.

The city hosts numerous seasonal, annual, and holiday festivals. One highlight is the Rocktober Brewfest, which combines Oktoberfest with a showcase of the region’s craft beers. More fun can be had at the beach bonfires held twice each month during the winter.

For a modest-sized town, Lake Worth has an amazing amount of art and cultural facilities. In fact, the Cultural Council of Palm Beach County has its headquarters in the city. There’s also the Duncan Theater at Palm Beach State College, which features live music and dancing.

The Lake Worth Playhouse is another theater here, a vintage building that hosts live musical and community theater performances. If you want to learn to create some art of your own – or just see wonderful exhibits – the city also offers the Benzaiten Center for Creative Arts, where glass, ceramic, and metal art is crafted.
