Criminal Trespassing Brevard County

Whenever I talk with people on the phone and they are trying to figure out where Palm Bay Florida is I always tell them, "You know, it's about 45 minutes south of the place where they launch the rockets" and they immediately know where I'm talking about. That's just one of the advantages of living on the Space Coast of Florida.


There is hardly a person in the United States and very few in the world that don't at least have some knowledge of the Space Coast and where "the rockets" are launched from. Growing up as a kid in Brevard County it was a great privilege to be able to walk out into our back yard and watch the rocket launches that would take men to the moon and eventually the Shuttle launches that would take astronauts to the International Space Station. Not too many people in the world get to see that.


Beyond rocket launches the Space Coast has advantages that are attractive to more than 500,000 people who live in Brevard County. The beaches are a major attraction for many people as sun worshippers and surfers start flocking to the ocean in March every year. Some of the more famous beaches are Sebastian Inlet Beach, Indialantic Beach and of course Cocoa Beach, home of the hit TV show of the late 60's, I Dream Of Jeannie.


The Space Coast is also a great retirement place for seniors as the Melbourne and Palm Bay areas were voted the 4th best place to retire in the nation a few years ago. Many senior communities dot Brevard County and the medical community offers a wide range of advanced services for retired citizens. The Space Coast a great place to spend your golden years.


One of the most noticeable benefits of life on the Space Coast is the weather. Florida isn't called the Sunshine State for nothing. With more than 300 days of sunshine every year in Florida, the weather is perfect to enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities on the Space Coast. Boating is a major outdoor recreational activity in Brevard County. With the Indian River, Lake Washington, the St. Johns River and other waterways, boaters can enjoy such activities as water skiing, fishing, air boating, canoeing and more. Canal 54 on the Brevard County, Indian River County line is a favorite area for waterskiers and ski clubs. Professional level ski tournaments have been held in canal 54.


Life along the Space Coast evolves at a serene pace without the business, traffic, congestion and crime of the big city. All the towns in Brevard County still somewhat have that small town feel while having access to big city amenities. Headline musical and entertainment acts can be found in concert at The King Center on the campus of Brevard Community College in north Melbourne and the Milwaukee Brewers Major League Baseball team call Space Coast Stadium home for spring training. The Brevard County Manatees round out the rest of baseball season for sports fans in Brevard to enjoy.


For more big time entertainment and culture, the Space Coast is situated so that Orlando and everything that goes with it is just a 1 hour to 45 minute drive from anywhere in Brevard County.


With so much to enjoy and access to many activities, recreation, beautiful weather and more, the Space Coast of Florida is one of the best places to live in the nation. If you ever get the chance to see a Shuttle launch and spend time in any of Brevard County's many quaint communities you will be hooked and then you to may want to call the Space Coast home.
