Sunrise
The City of Sunrise, located in western Broward County, is home to more than 96,000 residents and host to several million national and international visitors each year. Situated in the heart of the tri-county region (Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach), we're proud to be the gateway to a vast number of residential, business, entertainment and cultural opportunities - and the stage for spectacular, color-washed sunsets.
Sunrise is the 26th largest of Florida's 400+ municipalities, as well as one of its most progressive. Yet it remains a friendly place where natural beauty is valued and lush landscaping is used to enhance neighborhoods, thoroughfares and public places. Sunrise also maintains its long-standing commitment to developing and maintaining itself as a sustainable community that preserves the past while planning for the future.
