Jupiter
What do you think of Jupiter as a place to live for a family? Also, how is the commute to Parkland if you work in Wellington?

Jupiter is a great place ! Something for everyone and all styles of living
accommodations. I cant really comment on the trip into Wellington except
to say it would probably be about 40 minutes of not so pleasant driving.

Jupiter is a great area, pretty expensive and ritzy for my taste though. Wellington/Parkland are also very nice suburban choices. If you are going to be commuting to those areas, I would certainly suggest living closer since the commute 40 - 80 minutes to those areas... Wellington being close 40 - 60 and parkland 60 - 80 mins. Another fine choice would be Boca since it is much more central, established, closer to beaches, tons of activities etc...
Good luck on your move

The commute to Parkland from Wellington and vice versa is easy, just take SR7/441 south. I would avoid the turnpike during rush hour, though some don't mind it. Getting to Jupiter from either of these places, is not as easy. Either the turnpike or 95 whether of which would be a great commute with the traffic.

Depends how fast you drive, time of day/year it is (season) and whether or not you take SR7/441 or the turnpike. Turnpike is faster, but during rush hour it can sometimes be a parking lot.
Weekday rush hour, probably 45 minutes to 1 hour
Weekends 30 to 45 minutes or so.
