Welcome to our Brevard County Commercial Real Estate and Brevard County Residential Real Estate site.
About Brevard County:
Counting more than 495,000 residents, Brevard’s population has
quadrupled since President Kennedy announced his goal of leaving American
footprints on the moon. People are moving here for myriad reasons,
not the least of which is to escape urban congestion. No mystery there — with
72 miles of coastline and an average temperature of 71.7 degrees, Brevard
affords appreciably more elbow room than Tampa Bay or South Florida.
But it won’t last long.
Recording a 19 percent growth rate during the 1990s, Brevard saw the
value of new homes ring the $1billion bell last year.
The Space Coast is getting more diverse. More than 83 percent of its
residents are listed as non-Hispanic whites, but between 2000 and 2002,
its minority population grew at twice the rate of whites. Leading the
way was the 12.4 percent growth rate of Hispanics, who now number nearly
25,000. Blacks count about 9 percent of the population. Palm Bay is
Brevard’s largest city with 80,000 residents, and it reflects
some of the county’s greatest diversity.
Lagging behind only Miami as the nation’s busiest cruise-ship
terminal, Port Canaveral added a whopper to its inventory last year — Royal
Caribbean’s Mariner of the Seas. This one holds 3,800 passengers,
who can do anything from miniature golf to rock climbing in transit.
The Port now berths eight multi-day cruise ships and two gambling excursion
ships.
