Located on the east coast of Florida in Brevard County along the Indian River, the city of Titusville is a doorway to many of the state's most treasured natural resources. It is just minutes away from the Kennedy Space Center, where NASA launches regular shuttle flights above the city's beaches. This is how it got its nickname of "Space City, USA". One Titusville attraction is the Skydive Space Center, where all jumps are made from 15,000 feet - you'll be getting the "highest ride in Florida". Canaveral National Seashore, Titusville Municipal Marina and Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge are also nearby and the world-renowned attractions of Orlando are less than an hour away. Titusville is a thriving, modern city of more than 46,000 residents who enjoy excellent schools, proximity to three international airports, affordable housing, and outstanding recreational and cultural attractions. North Brevard County Public Schools serve nearly 75,000 students in 80 schools, including those in Titusville. District scores on standardized tests are consistently above national and state averages. The city features 3 championship golf courses as well as numerous parks and more than 40 indoor recreational facilities. The beaches of Brevard County have a claim to fame: they are the largest sea turtle nesting grounds in the country. As many as 6,000 loggerhead, green sea and leatherback turtles come ashore to nest beginning in May and hatching continues until late October. Return to Neighborhoods |
