It incorporates the subdivision known as Palm Aire Village West, as well as a portion of the subdivision known as Palm Aire Village East. The subdivision was unincorporated until the residents voted to incorporate into the city of Fort Lauderdale in September of 1999. Although the 2000 census reported it as a separate area, by September of 2000, it was fully legally incorporated into Fort Lauderdale.
The area commonly known as Palm Aire is actually a considerable portion of southwest Pompano Beach, comprised of numerous condominium developments, golf courses, rental units and valuable homes. The CDP and data in this article, however, refers to the neighborhood of Palm Aire Village West, which is actually directly to the south and west of Palm Aire.
