Hollywood Florida, it may share a name with another Hollywood, but make no mistake these places are in many ways very different, but in other ways kind of similar.

Hollywood Florida is a great place to live, the city, which is located north of Miami proper, is kind of a toned down version of that city. While Miami attracts all kinds of people with different agendas and styles, Hollywood is a much calmer and more homogenized place. In fact, it might almost be called boring, if it wasn’t so beautiful.

A favorite place for many retirees from up north, Hollywood has all of the amenities that you would expect for people who are taking the final years of their lives and making the most out of them. Long gone are the days of shuffleboard and 3pm dinner buffets. Seniors today have more energy and higher expectations. Hollywood has responded to this by attracting a lot of fine dining and entertainment that suits people of all ages.

And then there’s the beach, no matter who you probably love going to the beach, it’s just one of those universal human needs. Hollywood has long stretches of pristine beaches that are cared for and manicured by the city to the highest level of beauty. They are safe and they are fun and they are one of main reasons folks from all over the country flock here to relax.
