I've heard really great things about Jupiter and it would be the only place I would consider on the east coast.

If you're looking at Jupiter you should also take a look at Sarasota county on the west coast. The school system is great, beaches are beautiful, lots of stuff to do.

Good luck with your search!

This topic may get more responses in the Palm Beach County portion of the forum.

Nonetheless, I always recommend Jupiter for family living. It's clean, smaller-scale yet close to West Palm Beach. World class shopping and dining is literally 5 - 10 minutes away in Palm Beach Gardens. It has excellent rated schools, very low crime. It's a desirable place to live, so it's also held its value in the real estate bubble better than most places in the state. The beaches of Jupiter and Juno Beach are beautiful.

You can find homes in all types of price points and styles and neighborhoods in Jupiter. From acreage homes on dirt roads in "Jupiter Farms" and "Palm Beach Country Estates" to the New Urbanist development of Abacoa with its tons of families, skate park and nature preserves, to "North Palm Beach Heights" neighborhood, with NO HOA fees, to traditional gated communities like Egret's Landing, the Shores, etc. There are also very spacious townhomes that feel like homes, and condos to choose from.
