Just like the rest of the country, the Pembroke Pines real estate market has too taken its hit during this economic downturn. With respect to the size of other cities around the country, Pembroke Pines is relatively small with 146,000 locals. Since the city was only just incorporated back in 1960 it is still a considered to be a young city in terms of years when compared to others in the area. And during this recession, the city has actually maintained above average real estate prices. The residents of Pembroke Pines will most likely see a population rise as well as an increase in real estate.
