Coral Springs doesn’t bring in beach crowds, have a nightclub scene, or boast any particular tourist destination. That, like a lot of things here, is by design. Laid out with livability in mind, Coral Springs tends toward outdoor life — it’s packed with recreation trails, golf courses, and public parks. Though you won’t find any actual natural springs there, Coral Springs remains a thriving community filled with flowing canals, voluminous trees, and an air of hospitality. After its founding during the 1960s, the city experienced rapid growth in the following decades. The height of its buildings — which rarely reach above 10 stories tall — helps establish a more communal feel. From downtown Coral Springs, it’s abundantly easy to get to bustling metropolitan centers, but it’s even easier to get to the quiet harmony of home.
