About SoSo West Palm Beach
The Southend is the "new" hot neighborhood along West Palm Beach's waterfront. Lovingly nicknamed "SoSo" (South of Southern) West Palm Beach, the neighborhood runs from Southern Blvd to the Canal, before West Palm Beach becomes Lake Worth, along Flagler Dr west to South Dixie. The Southend or SoSo, was mainly built in the 40's and 50's and features many "ranch" style concrete block homes from that era, a good amount of mid-century modern, and then a diverse architecture list from there - everything from ultra modern to Mediterranean. The area has become very popular with many homes being renovated as great restaurants and shops open along the Dixie corridor. Just a short walk to the Intracoastal has always been a highlight and draw of the neighborhood, as many residents walk and bike (or walk their dogs) up and down Flagler Drive along the waterway.
More on SoSo West Palm Beach Well ranked elementary school called South Olive Elementary is a great bonus to the neighborhood. Just a 7-8 minute drive into Downtown West Palm Beach or 4-5 minutes to Palm Beach Island for great dining and shopping options. Our Broker/Owner lives in the neighborhood, and loves calling SoSo home. Call us today to view homes for sale in Soso West Palm Beach!

What does SoSo mean?
South of Southern, the neighborhoods between Southern Boulevard and the Lake Worth line, from South Dixie to the Intracoastal. It's become shorthand for West Palm's most dynamic residential corridor.
How is SoSo different from El Cid?
Freedom. Most of SoSo is not a regulated historic district, so the teardown-and-rebuild cycle runs unrestricted, which is why brand-new construction now sits beside 1920s cottages. Buyers who want new or want to build generally land in SoSo; buyers who want protected 1920s character land in El Cid.
What do homes cost in SoSo?
The widest spread in the city: interior cottages and mid-block homes from under $1M, new construction in the $3M, $8M range, and South Flagler waterfront estates reaching $40M+. Block-by-block position relative to the water drives everything.
Is there an HOA?
No, SoSo is open city neighborhoods with no fees and no association approval, another reason builders and renovators favor it.
What's the lifestyle like?
Bike-the-Flagler-trail territory: the waterfront path, South Olive Park's recreation campus, the Southern Boulevard bridge to Palm Beach's south end, and a growing strip of restaurants along South Dixie. Families also note the well-regarded neighborhood school zone, verify current assignments.
Why has SoSo appreciated so strongly?
It offers the same Intracoastal corridor as the island and El Cid with fewer restrictions and (relatively) more accessible pricing, so it's absorbed an outsized share of the wealth migration. New construction comps keep resetting the ceiling.
