Boca Raton is a peaceful, affluent community on the southeast coast of Florida, about half an hour from Ft. Lauderdale and a little over an hour from Miami. It is famous for its pink and yellow colored buildings.

Boca Raton is bordered by the ocean on the east (and route A1A), and the Everglades national park (route 441) on the west.
