Palm Aire, Florida was an unincorporated census-designated place in Broward County, Florida consisting of residential property, commercial businesses, and four golf courses. Palm Aire describes both Palm Aire Village, a collection of single family houses, and Palm Aire Country Club, a 5,000 acre property with condominums, villas, estate homes, and four golf courses. It is now part of the cities of Fort Lauderdale and Pompano Beach. As of the 2005 census, the CDP population was 5,784 in Fort Lauderdale and a population of 12,137 in Pompano Beach. The city of Fort Lauderdale 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. Palm Aire Country Club is home to several smaller sub-communities: Misty Oaks, Vizcaya, Fairview Pointe, Cypress Reach, Oasis, Palm Aire Gardens, & Royal Point.
