Why move to Palm City?
Palm City is a census-designated place in Martin County and one of the communities that make up the southern end of the so-called “Treasure Coast,” named for the old Spanish shipwrecks lying off the coast. These are smaller, comfortable, more laid-back residential communities than the bustling beach cities farther south — making Palm City a favorite for families and professionals who want space, top schools, and a quieter pace. Add Florida’s lack of a state income tax and an easy drive to Stuart’s beaches and downtown, and the appeal is clear. (Weighing it? See the pros and cons of moving to South Florida.)
