Property tax · $455/mo 0.94% of value a year — the ACS 2020-2024 median bill over the median home value for Broward County, FL
Insurance & upkeep · $623/mo insurance, maintenance and repairs together, from the BLS Consumer Expenditure Survey — the national figure for mortgaged homeowners, scaled to this market's home value. BLS publishes the three bundled and they cannot be split.
Both are priced off the same month's home value, so they rise with the market. Neither is a quote — a specific home's bill depends on its assessment, its age and its insurer.

What it’s like
The place. Wilton Manors is a small city in Broward County where residents are older than in most American places, and household incomes run above the county's. Homes are more often owned than rented, though a good share of people rent, and a four-year degree is common among adults. Winters are mild, with even the coolest month staying comfortably warm by the standards of most of the country, summers are hot, and the year brings plenty of rain and almost no snow.
Work. Residents work mostly in professional and business services, in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, in schools, hospitals and social care, and in banks, insurance and property. Within town, some of the largest workplaces are The Pearl at Fort Lauderdale, a convalescent home, Wilton Manors Health and Rehab Center, a nursing home, and Publix Super Markets. Unemployment across Broward County has risen a little over the past year, and the county has about the same number of jobs as it did a year earlier.
Things to do. In or beside town, the Museum of Art Fort Lauderdale and the Stonewall National Museum Archives & Library are both museums, and Hugh Taylor Birch State Park is a protected area for time outdoors. A short drive away, Butterfly World is a zoo-style attraction and the New River offers a stretch of water to see. For a game or a show, Hard Rock Stadium is a longer drive away.
