Welcome to Paradise!
The shimmering waters of our peaceful Indian River Lagoon offer boating, sailing, skiing, fishing and so many other forms of enjoyment. Just steps away are 72 miles of white sandy beaches. Top these off with competitive schools, enticing arts and culture, charming communities, and ample recreational opportunities and it's easy to see why Brevard County has been among one of the fastest-growing areas in the country.
Our average temperature is 73 degrees; sea breezes maintain an average of 82 in summer and 63 in winter. Schools, businesses, shopping centers, and recreational areas are convenient to neighborhoods on both the mainland and the beachside. Restaurants are plentiful, traffic is light, golf courses and tennis courts are within easy access. Needless to say, we're one of the best-kept secrets on the East Coast.
Housing is very affordable, there is no state income tax, and the county offers a $25,000 homestead exemption for homeowners.
