Aventura (Palm Beach: hotels, living, professionals)

[mf123]

Lived there 10 yrs ago. Thinking about coming back to the area. Would prefer to be in Palm Beach, but job will be on Brickell. Has Aventura changed much in the 10 yrs? I loved it then, just not sure if its the same community as back then. Would love to hear feedback.

Aventura is just as nice now and has a younger population. The retirees are still there, but there are now a lot more 30's-40's professionals and young families in addition to them. The only other changes of which I can think are more shopping and dining and probably slightly increased traffic. Oh, the population is a little more international now than it was 10 years ago: nowadays, in addition to NY/NJ people and FL natives, there are plenty of people from Europe and Latin America living there too. In addition to English, you will hear a fair share of Spanish, French, Russian, Portuguese, and Hebrew being spoken.

10 yrs ago aventura was way out there and so was sunny isles...today its all built up with a lot of choices for food and shopping...very international and maybe even a tourist trap with the hotels in sunny isles being so close. Dont know if that is what your looking for.
