Deerfield Beach at Broward's northern line
Deerfield Beach sits at the northern edge of Broward County, on the Atlantic, with 86,859 residents in the 2020 census. The Hillsboro River forms its northern boundary with Boca Raton and meets the Intracoastal Waterway near Deerfield Island Park, a 53-acre preserve reached by ferry. The beach and pier are on Deerfield Beach Island, and the city sits about 13 feet above sea level. It began as the Town of Deerfield in 1925 and became a city in 1945.
It is also an older city by age: in 2020, 21.6 percent of residents were 65 or older, the median age was 43.7, and 19.4 percent of housing units were vacant at census time.

October 2025: a 25-year storm on a 10-year drain
In late October 2025, a storm dropped 8.2 inches of rain in about two hours on Deerfield Beach, at the same time as a high tide. The October monthly average is 4.7 inches. Officials estimated the storm at about a 25-year event, while the drainage project in the Deerfield Beach Gardens neighborhood had been designed for a 10-year storm. Staff documented 44 affected residences, the worst on Southeast Eighth Avenue, and some residents reported water in homes that had never flooded before. The city said it would expedite an engineering review and hire an outside firm.
