"Boynton Beach" got its name from a community that broke off from the Town of Boynton in 1931. That community became known as "Ocean Ridge" while The Town of Boynton took the official name of "Boynton Beach" in 1941.
Boynton Beach is located one town north of Delray Beach and is just South of Palm Beach and offers a temperate warm climate which historically was an area known for growing pineapples, mangoes and oranges.
