Pompano Beach is developing right across from South Dixie

In South Dixie, residents are close to the ocean and an up-and-coming downtown area in Pompano Beach. “They’re making Pompano’s downtown into a street like Las Olas,” says broker Jon Kroll, owner of Kroll Realty, referring to the popular entertainment and shopping destination in Fort Lauderdale. “There are some high-end restaurants coming. The Community Redevelopment Agency is really in the process of renovating the whole city.” Additionally, South Dixie is the home of many of Pompano Beach’s public resources, like the library, city government and performing arts center.

The sun and the sand just miles from South Dixie

South Dixie is just 5 miles from Pompano Beach, where visitors and locals can spend a day out under the sun. The Fisher Family Pier extends 900 feet into the ocean, with the end shaped like a fish, and visitors here can pay to cast their reel or simply enjoy the views of the water and sand. The beach has several entry points, but only some portions allow activities like surfing or launching watercraft. Lauderdale-By-The-Sea has another public beach, over 4.5 miles away from South Dixie. On land, South Dixie has two neighborhood parks — Fairview Park and Norwood Pines Park. Both offer a playground and tennis courts, and Norwood Pines has paved walking paths for residents to stretch their legs.

Affordable triplexes and ranches in a great location

South Dixie offers a mix of housing types across the neighborhood. In subdivisions like Lyons Park, people can find ranches with a coastal feel on lightly landscaped lawns. Palm trees line the streets alongside the sidewalks. Homes often have Spanish or Mediterranean influences, from the stucco material to rounded arches and coastal colors. Triplexes are also common throughout South Dixie, where three families can live in the same long, flat complex. The triplexes often list between $300,000 and $350,000. “You can still get some single-family homes in the high $400,000s here on about a quarter-acre of land,” Knoll says. “The location and the price point are draws to the area.”

Farmers' markets at Pompano Beach Cultural Center

Pompano Beach Cultural Center (PBCC) sits in the northeastern corner of the neighborhood and features a theater and art gallery where residents can engage with the arts and live performances. Green Market Pompano Beach takes place every second and fourth Saturday morning from November to April at PBCC. Locals can browse fresh produce, baked goods, local seafood and crafts. Old Town Untapped, hosted at Bailey Contemporary Arts Center, offers live music from local bands every first Friday of the month from October to May.
