Lake Worth Beach is an artsy coastal city of about 42,000 just south of West Palm Beach (renamed from Lake Worth in 2019). Its downtown along Lake and Lucerne Avenues has a growing gallery, music, and restaurant scene, and its municipal beach and historic pier sit across the Intracoastal. Housing is eclectic — 1920s cottages, mid-century homes, condos — and relatively affordable for a beach city, drawing artists and LGBTQ residents.
