What I wish I knew before living in Riviera Beach
Hey everyone, Just moved here 2 months ago and You can expect to pay around $1,945 for rent here. The unemployment rate is 2.8%, which is pretty low. Homes are going for about $334,000 on average. Crime rate is something to consider -Riviera Beach sits at 1,338.5 per 100K. Household incomes average around $110,136 in Riviera Beach. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The suburbs are where most families end up. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.
Pros:
- Low crime in most areas
- Good schools
- Diverse community
- Easy commute
- Strong sense of community
Cons:
- Hot summers
- Boring for young people
- Not enough green space
