About the Community
Fort Lauderdale sits on Florida's southeastern coast in Broward County, positioned between Miami to the south and Palm Beach to the north — offering easy access to two major metropolitan areas while maintaining its own distinct identity as a vibrant, beach-forward city. Residents enjoy year-round sunshine, world-class beaches, boating, a thriving culinary and arts scene, and top-rated schools within family-friendly neighborhoods. The absence of a state income tax meaningfully increases take-home pay, and major international airports nearby make travel straightforward for clinicians relocating from out of state.
