The city was incorporated in 1960. At the time, there was less than a square mile of land in the city. The city has since grown over double in size while maintaining its residential atmosphere. The city grew dramatically after the 1992 disaster of Hurricane Andrew. Many of the displaced families moved the this area where new homes were already in progress. The city responded with more building and its own charter school system.
