The Town of Jupiter has come a long way. From a pioneer village for fishermen and animal trappers during the turn of the century (the 20th century), an incorporated township in the 1920’s, to a bedroom community in the post World War II era, to the Town that is one of the most desired places to live in the State of Florida, the Town of Jupiter has undergone tremendous changes and growth. What are we like? Where are we going in the future? The Planning Division often receives requests for demographic information from the public, whether for grant writing or market research.
