Exactly... somehow that issue’s been ignored.

Well Boca Raton has 91,000 people so the entire town cannot be upper middle to wealthy. I live in the wealthiest town in Tennessee and we have some middle class or cheaper apartment in a few areas. Never heard of any scary parts of Boca Raton but my buddy from college is from Boca and they have a few rundown parts in West Boca but nothing too scary.

Where can you suggest the OP find a rental for his family in Boca for $1,000/ month?

You are wrong.......east Boca is home to Pearl City (Glades/Dixie) and the Dixie Manor housing project and that no where near west Boca.

There’s a 2/2 in Verano available for 1450. 2 months rent security.

Close to Boca border.

If you should end up looking in South Delray, do not even bother with anything on Ilene Ct, Catherine Dr, 2000 block of Linton.

It puts you in a scary area.
Are you saying that $1500 a month for a rental is in a "scary" neighborhood? That is ridiculous although I know our rental prices on the other coast have gone up a lot but $1500 in Lee County will get you a nice place.

Palm Beach County is very diverse:

61 million......

https://www.realtor.com/realestatean...4_M52989-07349
$38,000

These two houses are 12 miles apart!

The bridges from Palm Beach to West Palm Beach can take you from wealthy to ghetto in less than 2 miles.

I had dinner in West Palm last night and went back to the interstate through a shady area. EVERY person standing on the street corner was eyeing me as I left.....looking to see if I was a cop, maybe a potential customer to buy drugs/sex. Rough area despite it still being daylight!

Pearl City mentioned above is less than 3 miles from 5mm homes.
