Palm Coast is in the eastern portion
of Flagler county,
which is located on the Atlantic Ocean, in the heart of
Northeast Florida. As of April 2002 the City of Palm Coast
had a population of 38,348 residents and covers an area of
approximately 50 square miles. Industrial parks within the City
currently house more than 30 mid to large size businesses
with the largest corporation, Palm Coast Data, employing
close to 1,000 people. Flagler County has had one of the
highest rates of population growth in the United States since
1990, according to the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Further,
the University of Florida's Bureau of Economic and Business
Research predicts Flagler County will experience one of the
highest job growth rates in Florida between 1995 and 2010.
Developed by ITT Corporation, in 1969, the original development
plan encompasses 48,000 home sites on approximately 42,000
acres ( 65.62 square miles ) of the 68,000 acres owned by ITT.
Paved street and central water and sewer serve all lots developed
within the plan. An extensive water management system was designed
to replenish the area's water table, which includes 46 miles of
freshwater canals and 23 miles of saltwater canals.
