Townhouse for Sale in Lake Placid, Lighthouse Point

I cannot verify a neighborhood called 'Lake Placid' within Lighthouse Point; Lighthouse Point is a small, primarily residential coastal city in Broward County, Florida. It features low-density, single-family and waterfront homes with extensive canal access, a suburban, quiet atmosphere, and generally lower crime rates than nearby urban areas. Residents have access to Broward County public schools, municipal parks and a marina, easy commutes to Fort Lauderdale, and must consider a tropical climate with hot, humid summers and exposure to hurricanes and sea-level rise.

This input combines two separate Florida municipalities: Lake Placid (Highlands County) and Lighthouse Point (Broward County). Lake Placid is generally more affordable than the Florida median, with lower average housing costs characteristic of small inland towns. Lighthouse Point is an affluent coastal suburb of Fort Lauderdale with housing costs and overall cost of living above the Florida average, making it relatively expensive compared with inland communities.

Both locations have warm, humid Florida climates: Lake Placid (central/south Florida) has a humid subtropical pattern with hot, humid summers and mild winters, while Lighthouse Point (Broward County) has a tropical monsoon/tropical savanna pattern with year‑round warmth and a distinct wet season (May–October). Summer highs typically reach the upper 80s to low 90s °F (around 30–34°C) with frequent afternoon thunderstorms; winter highs are usually in the 60s–70s °F, with cooler nights (50s–60s in Lake Placid, mid‑60s in Lighthouse Point). Both locations are subject to Atlantic hurricane season (June–November) and occasional winter cold fronts that bring brief cooler temperatures.
