A burgeoning neighborhood in southeastern Florida

On the west side of Pompano Beach, an area of southeastern Florida that showcases innovation, arts and entertainment within its districts, sits Collier City. Less than half an hour from the beach and bounded on all four sides by major roadways, the centrally-located neighborhood provides its residents with convenience to major areas of the region. “Collier City is up-and-coming and vibrant,” says Andre Barrett, a Realtor and team leader of the Barrett Group. “It’s close to the water and everything’s being revitalized, and the city’s putting a lot of money into it. There’s a lot of young people and young families coming.”

Mid-century homes with style and flair

Most of the residences in Coller City were constructed just past the mid-20th century, primarily in the 1950s and 1960s. Traditional ranch homes and some small bungalows are among the most popular designs in the neighborhood, though larger estates, Spanish revival designs with tiled roofs and Mediterranean features can also be found here. “There’s a lot of ranch-style homes that are mixed in with multi-family properties,” Barrett says. “It’s some of the most affordable real estate right now in Brown County.” There is no homeowner’s association, so residents are able to redesign or renovate. Prices typically fall between $250,000 and $400,000, and large lots are also sometimes sold. Man-made lakes surrounded by residential living, as well as gardens on the properties, add flair to the landscape.

Uniquely-hued athletic facilities and golf greens

The McNair Recreation Center is the activity hub of the community. Located in Ronald E. McNair Park, attendees can exercise at the gym, clamber onto the playground or just take a walk around the ocean-blue track. If sports are on the docket for the day, its trademark blue football field and basketball courts are perfect for a pickup game or two. Golfers can hit the links at the Palm Aire Country Club, just across West Atlantic Boulevard to the south. The beach is just about 15 minutes in the eastern direction, meaning residents are less than half an hour from hitting the sand and enjoying the waves.

Regional and national chains for dining

The casual environment of Glasskey Restaurant and Take-Out is located right in the center and heart of Collier City, making for a friendly stop for bites to eat. Regional chain Gyroville has a location a few minutes down the road, while chains like Taco Bell and Popeyes are located on the south side of the neighborhood and McDonald’s is near the northern boundary. “Topgolf is right there at the Pomp, too,” Barrett, who’s been active in South Florida real estate for more than 15 years, says. “There’s lots of parks in Pompano and it’s a city that’s on the water, so the beach is always fun – it’s a beach town environment with the Pompano Beach Pier.”

Celebrate the arts, food and more at recurring festivals

A number of area festivals are favorites for locals, including Old Town Untapped, a monthly celebration of the artistic scene outside the Bailey Contemporary Arts Center. Food trucks and art vendors abound in a vibrant atmosphere filled with the sounds of local bands’ music and the sights of craft beer pouring into glasses. Cooks can engage in friendly competition at the Collier City BBQ Throwdown, too, which spotlights the best St. Louis-style barbecue the area has to offer and took the area by storm. Also featuring live music and good vibes, the contest only recently began but has become a beloved area showcase.

Four crucial roadways on all sides of Collier City

Major thoroughfares make up each boundary of the Collier City layout. Florida’s Turnpike comprises the western edge, in its entirety starting in Miami and running for around 300 miles northward, while Hammondville Road runs along the northern boundary and South Powerline Road to the east. West Atlantic Boulevard carves its way along the southern border, completing the roadway quartet and connecting to the Turnpike, Interstate 95 and Route 1. “There’s lots of development there,” Barrett says. “Traditionally, it’s a relaxed, lower-income area that was isolated over the years but now, based on location, it looks like it’s going to make a very strong comeback in the near future.”
