Fort Lauderdale is a coastal city in southeastern Florida located 30 miles north of Miami, with a population of 182,760 at the 2020 census, making it the third-most populous city in the Miami Metro Area and the seat of Broward County. Named after Major William Lauderdale during the Second Seminole War, the city was first incorporated in 1911, over 50 years after the original forts were abandoned in 1838. Known as the "Venice of America" for its 165 miles of inland waterways and the "yachting capital of the world" with over 50,000 registered yachts and 100 marinas, Fort Lauderdale boasts a diversified economy spanning marine, finance, aerospace, film, and television production. The city attracts over 13 million overnight visitors annually to Greater Fort Lauderdale and processes nearly four million cruise passengers through Port Everglades, the world's third-busiest cruise port, supported by year-round temperatures averaging 75.5°F and 3,000 hours of annual sunshine. Hollywood is a city in Broward County, Florida, and the third-largest city in the Miami metropolitan area with a population of 153,067 as of 2020. Founded in 1920 by Joseph Young, who envisioned a planned community featuring beaches, man-made lakes, infrastructure, parks, golf courses, and yacht basins designed by Panama Canal engineer George Washington Goethals, Hollywood was incorporated in 1925 with Young as its first mayor. The city became a popular winter destination for northern "snowbirds," growing to over 2,400 hotel units and 12,170 single-family homes by 1960. Named "Hollywood by the Sea" to distinguish it from Young's New York real-estate project, the city suffered severe damage from the 1926 Miami hurricane and subsequent storms, including Hurricane Irma in 2017, which caused deaths at a local rehabilitation center and prompted the state's Rebuild Florida assistance program. Hollywood's economy and development reflect the early 20th-century Florida real-estate boom, with the city featuring the historic Hollywood Beach Hotel (now Hollywood Beach Resort) and Hollywood Boulevard as key landmarks.
