Watch the edges

A "Fort Lauderdale" mailing address covers far more ground than the city itself. Wilton Manors, Oakland Park, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, and pockets of unincorporated Broward all use it. Cross a city line and your water and sewer can change even though the ZIP code doesn't.

Fort Lauderdale utility questions, answered

Can I choose my electricity provider in Fort Lauderdale?

No. Florida is a regulated electricity market, so there's no plan shopping like in Texas. At every address we sampled, electric service came from FPL. You set up an account with them, and your rate is the regulated tariff rather than a plan you pick. What you can control is timing: get the account started before move-in day so the power is on when you arrive.

Who do I call to set up water and sewer in Fort Lauderdale?

The City of Fort Lauderdale runs both water and sewer. The same municipal provider came back for both at every address we sampled. If you're renting, ask whether the landlord keeps water in their name, which is common in smaller buildings. And confirm your address is actually inside city limits with the lookup, since plenty of "Fort Lauderdale" mail goes to homes in neighboring cities and unincorporated Broward.

Does Fort Lauderdale have natural gas service?

It varies by address, so run the lookup rather than assuming. Residential natural gas is uncommon across Florida generally, so a fully electric home, range, dryer, water heater, is nothing unusual. If a listing advertises a gas stove, that's your cue to ask the seller or landlord who currently supplies the gas and whether it's piped in or delivered by tank.

Who is the electric company in Fort Lauderdale?
