These places get recommended by Neighbourhood Scout because they have an optimal mix (from official statistics) of good schools, low crime, a family-friendly atmosphere and other attributes that families usually rate as important. Many different house price brackes are included, but otherwise the list is in descending order of best mix of attributes:
Windermere, Boca Raton, Winter Springs, Key Biscayne, Longwood, Orange Park, Fort Lauderdale (chiefly west of the Florida Turnpike), Jupiter, Oviedo, Naples.
Other Internet sources suggest living anywhere near St. Petersburg, Winter Park, Clearwater Bech, Pinellas County and Fishhawk Ranch is good for families.
In 2006 Child Magazine put both Miami and Orlando in its top ten family-friendly cities in the USA. They earnt these ratings because they are easy to get around, have plenty of child-friendly restaurants and other suitable entertainment, including public parks and generally benign weather.
