Discover The Palm Beaches celebrates and embraces all these communities. We’re committed to showcasing the unique attributes of businesses and residents throughout Palm Beach County and proactively strive to be a welcoming, nurturing, accepting, and inclusive community for all who work, live and visit.
The Palm Beaches have been at the forefront of equality and human rights in the State of Florida. The Human Rights Campaign Foundation has rated West Palm Beach and Wellington as better than perfect on its 2022 Municipal Equality Index (MEI) Scorecard. West Palm Beach received a score of 106 points, while Wellington received 101 points. Rating more than 500 U.S. cities, the MEI examines how inclusive are the municipal laws, policies and services of the LGBTQ people in communities. Cities are rated based on non-discrimination laws, the municipality as an employer, municipal services law enforcement, and the city leadership’s public position on equality.
