Royal Palm Beach
Royal Palm Beach is a village in western Palm Beach County that grew from a mid-century planned community into a family-oriented suburb known for its parks, recreation programs, and inland South Florida convenience. Incorporated in 1959, the community sits a short drive from Wellington, West Palm Beach, and many of the region’s best-known attractions, while offering a quieter, residential setting of its own.
About the Community
Royal Palm Beach was incorporated on June 18, 1959, and developed as part of the westward expansion of Palm Beach County during Florida’s postwar growth years.
Today, the village is widely recognized for its emphasis on green space and recreation, with a network of parks, community facilities, and local programming that supports families, youth sports, and year-round outdoor activity.
