This South Florida market blends the affluent retirement communities of Palm Beach County with the heavily Hispanic farmworker populations of the Treasure Coast, producing a demographic mix that routinely complicates straight-line polling models.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 59.6 points in 1912 and a Republican high of 47.7 points in 1972. Between 2020 and 2024 the market moved 10.5 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 6.8 points.
A population of 2,264,234, a 54% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $80,400 describe the market. The market's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Miami-Fort Lauderdale and New York.
The media markets whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.
Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
