With a population of over 180,000 residents, Fort Lauderdale is a major city in Broward County, Florida. Located along the southeastern coast of the state, it is known for its beautiful beaches, boating canals, and subtropical climate.

History

The area where Fort Lauderdale now sits was originally home to the Tequesta Indians. In the early 19th century, the area was used as a trading post for goods going up and down the New River. In 1838, the United States government built Fort Lauderdale to help control the Seminole Indians during the Second Seminole War.

Fort Lauderdale was officially incorporated as a city in 1911 with a population of just 175 residents. The Florida land boom of the 1920s helped the city grow substantially. The construction of railroads, bridges, and highways in the area helped establish Fort Lauderdale as a gateway to southern Florida.

During World War II, Fort Lauderdale became a major training center for American forces. The naval training center was responsible for training over 50,000 recruits during the war. After the war ended, service members returned to the area, boosting the city's population.

Over the second half of the 20th century, Fort Lauderdale continued to grow as more people migrated to the warm climate of South Florida. Tourism, boating, and yachting have become major parts of the local economy.
