City of Sunrise

The City of Sunrise, located in western Broward County, is home to approximately 97,000 residents and host to several million national and international visitors each year. Situated in the heart of the tri-county region (Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach), we are proud to be the gateway to a vast number of residential, business, entertainment and cultural opportunities - and the stage for spectacular, color-washed sunsets. Sunrise is the 26th largest of Florida's 400+ incorporated municipalities, as well as one of its most progressive. Yet it remains a friendly place where natural beauty is valued and lush landscaping is used to enhance neighborhoods, thoroughfares and public places. Sunrise also maintains its long-standing commitment to developing and maintaining itself as a sustainable community that preserves the past while planning for the future. A full-service city with a staff of approximately 1,160 and an annual budget of just over $394 million (fiscal year 2021-2022), we pride ourselves on providing an exceptional environment in which to live, work and play. That's why we're South Florida's leader in providing quality-of-life facilities and superior city services. Whether you're a Sunrise resident or business owner - or are planning a visit to our City - we hope you'll find this site a rich source of information. Welcome.
