Convenience is key in west Port St. Lucie neighborhood
"Convenience" is the word for Tradition, Florida. This master-planned, mixed-used neighborhood on Port St. Lucie's west side contains 55-plus neighborhoods, multi-generational neighborhoods and all the basics, including shops, restaurants, parks, schools and festivities. "Convenience is everything here," says Don Minch, Sales Associate with Palm Beach Luxury Homes, and a Tradition resident of 16 years. "Where we live, it's very quiet but we can get to Publix in 5 minutes, to the doctor in 10 minutes and there are plenty of restaurants nearby. You don't have to leave Tradition for much."
Tradition Square is the community's retail and event center. "It has music, food trucks -- there's something going on pretty much every weekend on the square," Minch says. Established in 2003, Tradition's oldest infrastructure dates back only 20 years. Even newer construction is available as the community continues to expand. Many retirees choose to settle here, and they can live an active lifestyle with community fitness classes and ample outdoor areas. Cleveland Clinic Tradition Hospital is conveniently located just south of the town center with an extensive range of services, including emergency care.
Tradition Square is a main shopping hub and hangout in the heart of Tradition.
