Living in Space Coast

Brevard County's Space Coast takes its name and much of its economic identity from Kennedy Space Center and the surrounding aerospace/defense industry (NASA, SpaceX, Blue Origin, and a deep bench of contractors), which has driven real, sustained job growth here in a way tied to a single industry more than almost anywhere else in the state. The region runs along the Atlantic from Titusville (closest to the launch pads) south through Cocoa, Merritt Island, Viera, Melbourne, and Palm Bay, with beach access, a genuine engineering/tech-heavy workforce, and rocket launches as a literal, recurring backyard event.
