Boca Raton is ever evolving…from architect Addison Mizner’s vision as a resort destination in 1925 to a growing and thriving coastal city 100 years later.

As Boca celebrates its golden anniversary, it’s a city that doesn’t stand still. It never did. Attracting a younger demographic in 2025, plans revolve around the future. Boca wants to encourage a new generation to raise their own families here, while providing residents of all ages with access to excellence, from jobs and volunteerism, to pristine beaches and health care.
