By Jony Mozen


People think so many things about Florida. It's the sunshine state. Oranges are its main crop. Alligators cross highways. Hurricanes visit regularly. People love to retire here. But there are things you didn't know about South Florida that you probably wished you did.

South Florida consists of cities like Miami. We all know the lure, beauty, and drama of Miami. Gorgeous beaches filled with hot bodies by day and lush clubs with Latin influences beckon by night. But Miami has a rich history. Throughout the years it has gone through its ups and downs, but the draw has always been strong. Here you can find most U. S. Corporations Latin headquarters because of the proximity to South America.

The population of Miami is mostly Hispanic and that population is mainly from Cuba. Here this culture reflects in the music, food, culture, and ambiance of the city and people. The buildings are bright and bold, the beats played in the clubs and on the street are Latin, and the fashion is for the rich, famous, and beautiful. The climate isn't the only thing that is hot here.

Boca Raton has a reputation as the end point for the elderly of the States. But this city is where Florida's only five star resort lies. The Boca Resort and Club started in the twenties by the Ritz Carlton hoteliers. The name was changed and in the late sixties two pink towers were added, but the dedication to class, elegance, and style never changed. That elegance is what directs the pulse of the city now and the people who live here are bearers of that beat.

Fort Lauderdale used to be the land where college kids came to be bad. But that is not the case now. Instead of crazy kids, this town has stepped up its game. Known as the Venice of America, the canals and waterways that wind through the city have called to those that love boating. Because of this, yacht manufacturing has become the economy that has raised the finances of this city.

Located on the most southern point of Florida is Key West. Their location puts them closer to Cuba than the mainland of Florida. This place of hanging between two worlds has created a magical lure that many find addictive. The tourists that come seem to always return to enjoy the amazing restaurants, shopping, and of course, the hospitality of the locals.

Whatever the draw Key West brought presidents, writers, poets, and those of the dramatic to visit. Authors Tennessee Williams and Ernest Hemingway stayed here for extended periods of time writing great works like A Streetcar Named Desire and To Have and Have Not.

This land has ghosts of Spaniards, Indians, British and more running through the founding and growth of the Southern part of this state. The things you didn't know about South Florida can be learned if you find a place that you enjoy and decide to set down roots here. You know that beauty and tranquility await you.
