Born and raised here. Crime rate is something to consider -Lauderdale-by-the-Sea sits at 252.0 per 100K. Poverty rate is 2.3%, which is pretty low. It's a a small town city with about 6,159 people. The unemployment rate is 1.4%, which is pretty low. With a population of 6,159, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea is a small town. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The weather takes some getting used to. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The weather takes some getting used to.
