Cape Coral is located in Lee County

Cape Coral is the largest city in southwest Florida and is the 12th largest city in population.  Over the past decade, the city has seen a tremendous surge in population with an estimated 50,000 new residents in the past 6 years relocating to Cape Coral. 

The city features thousands of waterfront residential properties on canals, including many with direct, saltwater access to the Gulf of Mexico and Charlotte Harbor. The supply and affordability of these waterfront sites makes Cape Coral one of the most attractive communities on the Gulf Coast.

The city is a large peninsula bordered by the Caloosahatchee River on the east and Matlacha Pass on the west. It is located between Sarasota and Marco Island and just west of Ft. Myers.

One of the most attractive features of Cape Coral and Southwest Florida is its terrific year-round weather. The area averages 335 days of bright sunshine each year (the other 30 days are just moderate sunshine). While the summers are very warm, humid and rainy, the winters in Cape Coral are absolutely beautiful.

This is a predominately single-family community, with over 400 miles of canals and quick access to the Gulf of Mexico, making Cape Coral a premier boating community. We also have many miles of fresh water canals that do not access the gulf, but are very popular with bass fishermen. Our community is a wonderful place to work, vacation or raise a family. Land values have jumped considerably in the past 12 months and continue to rise. Whether you are an investor looking for property or a family wanting a great place to live and raise your children, Cape Coral has it all!
