Hollywood is well-known as a resort area, with the population growing from winter- month visitors. The public beach stretches for seven miles and is filled with hotel and motel facilities as well as out-door cafes, restaurants, and shops along the oceanfront "broad" walk. Downtown revitalization has resulted in many new restaurants, shops, and art galleries.

Apartment and condominium complexes are prevalent throughout the area, both on the water and inland.

Incorporated in 1925, Hollywood is pretty much built out.

Among Hollywood major attractions are its abundance of parks. They provide picnic facilities, shuffle board, freshwater and saltwater fishing, boating , horseback riding and jogging. A favorite among residents is Topeekeegee Yugnee Park (T-Y Park for short), just

North of Sheridan Street and 33rd Avenue.

Along the intercostals waterway is John U. Lloyd Beach State Park.
