About this place
Port St. Lucie is a fast-growing coastal city on Florida's Treasure Coast, stretched along the Indian River Lagoon roughly halfway between Orlando and West Palm Beach. It transformed from a quiet town of 500 in 1970 to a vibrant community of over 170,000, yet it still feels refreshingly suburban and uncrowded. A new downtown is taking shape near the Civic Center along US-1, while established neighborhoods like St. Lucie West and Tradition anchor shopping, dining, and local life. The city's biggest claim to fame is serving as the spring training home of the New York Mets at Clover Park, making late winter and early spring a particularly lively time to visit.
