About Pahokee, FL

Pahokee was founded on the produce grown in the muck, the fertile bottom of the Everglades after part of it was drained in the early twentieth century. In 1939, the Federal Writers' Project guide said of Pahokee: "From Christmas until April, Pahokee is a 24-hour town; long trains of refrigerated cars roll out for northern markets day and night." "The streets are noisy and crowded; bars, restaurants and gambling places are never closed." In 1963, with access to Cuban sugar restricted, a sugar plant was built, and agriculture shifted to the mechanized crop of sugar cane. The plant closed in 2009. As a result, it is one of two Palm Beach County cities—the other is South Bay—on a list of 13 Florida municipalities in "a state of financial emergency." [ when? ] Records [ which? ] suggest it has been on the list continually since 1994. Unemployment exceeds 25%.
