What is Highland Beach Florida?

If I mention Boca Raton or Delray Beach or Miami Beach, Florida, people instantly recongnize the name.  But, if I mention Highland Beach, Florida, they look at me kind of funny as if to say, what are you talking about.  So let me tell you a little about it because it's worth knowing, especially if you're a beach person. 

Highland Beach FL is one of the most beautiful places on earth.  Comprised of 1.1 miles directly along the ocean, Highland Beach sits directly between the ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway.  It has condos and townhouses, villas and single family houses.   The town of Highland Beach has its own Town Commission, police force, post office, TV channel, website and water department.  The population is 3539 and the median age is 62.  The median household income is $ 94,662. 

The only means of access to Highland Beach is via Boca Raton or Delray Beach.  That's it.  The town has no stores, no public parking except at the town complex.  People who live in Highland Beach do their shopping in either Boca Raton or Delray Beach, a five-minute ride in either direction, with all the stores you could possibly think of.  Think grocery stores, banks, dry cleaners, yoga, pilates, juice bars, fitness centers, gyms, Trader Joe's, Fresh Market, Whole Foods, restaurants, schools, hospitals, houses of worship and easy access to main arteries for travel. 

Highland Beach is easily accessible by Fort Lauderdale Airport, West Palm Beach International Airport, Miami International Airport or Boca Raton's Private Airport. 

Are you a pet person?  Do you have a cat or dog or possibly two?  There are some pet friendly condos in Highland Beach, which is great for pet owners because they are hard to come by, especially at the beach.  A few other cat and dog friendly condos in Highland Beach that come to mind are the Highland Beach Club and Trafalgar.  We have dog parks, Mizner Bark and Canine Cove and Boca Raton has its own dog beach now.  So the Boca/Highland Beach/Delray Beach area is becoming more pet friendly!  And why not?  When WebMD can give me 27 ways pets can improve my health, I believe it  (Though you know I already believed it before!)

So, there you go.  Now you know all about Highland Beach, FL and what a beautiful place it is.  If you have any questions, I can always be reached on my cell or by text at (561) 716-7824 or by email at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

When you’re moving to Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach or Highland Beach with furry family members, you need to work with an experienced, caring and committed REALTOR® who understands the challenges you face as a pet parent. You need Elyse Berman. After growing up in New York and working as a Court Reporter in a fast-paced judicial system, Elyse moved to Boca Raton in 1994. Her goal: to be close to the beach. With three kids and two dogs, her family settled in a pet-friendly gated community – but when the kids grew up and moved out, she decided it was time to live like she was on vacation every day in a place right on the beach. However, Elyse quickly learned that not all beachfront properties in Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Highland Beach are pet friendly. Some have confusing pet rules that change frequently – and some claim to be pet friendly but only allow birds and fish. Elyse’s addiction to research, fueled by her love of real estate, the law and her dogs, helped her discover her passion for helping people find pet-friendly homes in Boca Raton and the surrounding communities. (You can learn more about how and why Elyse became Boca Raton’s premier pet-friendly REALTOR here.) With an ever-evolving list of which condominiums and communities are pet friendly (as well as what restrictions they currently impose on buyers), Elyse is ready to help you find the perfect place to live in Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach or Highland Beach. Her extensive knowledge of the local real estate market dates back to 1994; she’s seen new communities spring up, watched old communities become revitalized, and kept an eye on all the complexes, neighborhoods and subdivisions in the area for years. Call Elyse (561) 716-7824 Email Elyse Elyse@ElyseBerman.com She’s with you every step of the way, from your first tour of a home to closing (and beyond.) In fact, she stays in touch with many of the people whose homes she helped find – and she’s even sold those same homes decades later. She truly wants her clients to be happy, so she answers her phone and will never pass you off to a team member. Having made a cross-country move herself with a husband, three kids, two dogs and a business to run, Elyse knows all about the challenges you’re facing – and she can help you find a pet-friendly gated community in Boca Raton, a pet-friendly condo, a pet-friendly 55+ active adult community or anything else you’re looking for. Elyse loves dogs (well, all pets, actually) – and she makes it her business to keep up with the communities that accept furry family members. She personally wouldn’t move anywhere that wouldn’t allow her pets, and she won’t expect you to, either. She’ll never ask you to get rid of a pet or waste your time; she really understands what it’s like to have to find a place that’s suitable for all members of the family. No pets? No problem – Elyse also understands people who want to live in pet-free condos and neighborhoods. She can help you pinpoint all the best places to live. Elyse currently volunteers her time on the Professional Standards Committee (after having served on the Grievance Committee) for the Board of Realtors®, where she continues to learn. Serving on these committees is a lot like court reporting, which is why she loves it. Additionally, in order to better serve her clients, Elyse has attained the following designations along with membership in the following organizations: CRS – Council of Residential Specialists ABR – Accredited Buyer’s Representative GRI – Graduate Realtor’s Institute E-Pro – Internet Certified – Technology Certification Program C2EX – REALTORS® Commitment to Excellence Member National Association of REALTORS® Member Florida Realtors® Member Broward, Palm Beach & St. Lucie Realtors® 2018 – 2020 – Grievance Committee – Broward, Palm Beach & St. Lucie Realtors® 2021 – Present – Professional Standards – Broward, Palm Beach & St. Lucie Realtors®
