From historic Flamingo Park and El Cid to championship golf at Ibis and luxury towers downtown — Palm Beach County's urban heart

West Palm Beach, Florida is the urban heart of Palm Beach County — a vibrant, diverse city of more than 115,000 residents that serves as the county seat and a growing destination for businesses, arts, and culture on Florida's Atlantic coast. Unlike the quiet residential villages that surround it, West Palm Beach offers walkable neighborhoods, a thriving downtown arts district, and a wide spectrum of housing ranging from historic bungalows to luxury golf community estates. The Clematis Street and Rosemary Square entertainment districts have drawn national attention, and an influx of financial firms and remote workers has brought new energy to the city's housing market. The Cahur Group works with buyers and sellers across West Palm Beach's diverse neighborhoods.
