Viera West, FL

Viera West's defining present-day fact is the speed at which a master-planned landscape became a sizable community. Its population grew from 6,641 in 2010 to 16,688 in the 2020 census. Residential areas sit west of Interstate 95 within the larger Viera plan, where community parks and trails are paired with the permanently conserved 5,200-acre Viera Wilderness Park. Just across the interstate, the county's 118-acre Viera Regional Park concentrates much of the wider community's public recreation. It has baseball, softball, soccer, and multiuse fields; basketball and tennis-pickleball courts; two playgrounds; pavilions; and paved bicycle and walking routes beside lakes. The 18,000-square-foot community center adds a gym set up for basketball or four pickleball courts, meeting and activity rooms, and weekday hours extending into the evening. The 2020-2024 age profile included substantial shares at both ends of the range: 22 percent of residents were under 18 and another 23 percent were age 65 or older.

Homeowners occupied 81 percent of homes, while 88 percent of people age one or older had remained in the same home from the previous year. The median owner-occupied value was $546,600, median monthly costs with a mortgage were $2,497, and median gross rent was $2,182. Fifty-five percent of adults held at least a bachelor's degree, median household income was $109,170, and workers' mean travel time was about 28 minutes. For residents making trips beyond the immediate area, Brevard County's April 2026 transit map lists three routes serving Viera as a whole, with connections toward Titusville, Rockledge, and Melbourne.
