I live in Boynton and every year it gets worse down here... The heat has been unbearable for months and the city is overcrowded! A simple errand can take much longer  More

The climate is not bad. Mild winters but hot and humid summers. Hurricanes, but no snow and ice storms. Cost of living is a little too high, as is population density.  More
