In South Florida, water-front property is the most expensive. It seems everyone wants to be able to brag that they live on the water. But even though Florida has a long shoreline and a great number of natural lakes, not everyone can live on the shore. So developers have worked around that -- lakes are created in almost every development. Since Florida also has a high water table (which means that the ground is quickly saturated during a rainstorm), these lakes also serve as retention ponds to help keep flooding to a minimum in the during the rainy season.
