Surveying in St. Lucie County

St. Lucie County is one of Florida's fastest-growing counties, with Port St. Lucie consistently ranking among the nation's top cities for new residential construction. Massive planned communities like Tradition and St. Lucie West drive steady demand for subdivision platting and construction surveys.

The Indian River Lagoon runs along the county's eastern edge, and the St. Lucie River/C-44 Canal system bisects the county, creating complex waterfront boundary situations involving both tidal and freshwater boundary determinations.

Western St. Lucie County remains primarily agricultural, with large citrus groves and cattle ranches that require different survey approaches — large-parcel boundary work, agricultural easements, and conservation easement documentation.
