Located in the south portion of Brevard County, Rockledge is within driving
distance of most city conveniences, but possesses the peaceful and quiet
surroundings only a rural community could provide.
The town of Rockledge was formally recognized as a community in 1883, when the
United States Government established a post office where mail could be
delivered once a week by sailboat to the population of 25.
How times have changed. Now a growing area of the Space Coast, Rockledge has
2,782 residents and is attracting new businesses to the town with its
convenient access to Interstate 95 and close proximity to the available
workforce in the neighboring city of Palm Bay.
Attractions include Rockledge Scrub Sanctuary, which is a 345-acre nature
preserve developed through Brevard County's Environmentally Endangered Land
Program.
DEMOGRAPHICS
In line with nearly eight percent of the U.S. population, the residents of
Rockledge are family-oriented and live in rural neighborhoods in single-family
houses or manufactured homes.
