You better believe it. Pretty much all of the restaurants are open until at least 11pm-midnight. The bars are open way later of course. Some retail stays open that late but most close early especially on weekdays. |

When I lived in Ft. Lauderdale, most of the Las Olas Blvd. stores stayed open until 9 pm, to catch the dinner crowd walking around after dining. Of course, there are lots of tourists in that area...  |

You're right. Property taxes are sky high and also homeowners' insurance. A fun place to live, though. We miss the So. FL weather, too. |
