Every item on this page clears one bar: not commonplace, not everywhere. These are real, named resources with an actual verified designation, accreditation, or documented distinction — not a generic "has a hospital" or "has a shelter" list. A shorter, accurate list beats a padded one, the same honesty standard used throughout this site.

PGA Tour host course since 2007; former PGA of America headquarters

PGA National Resort

PGA National Resort, in Palm Beach Gardens, opened in 1980 and served as the PGA of America's own headquarters until the organization relocated to Texas in 2022. Its Champion Course, redesigned by Jack Nicklaus, hosted the 1983 Ryder Cup and the 1987 PGA Championship, and its closing three holes — nicknamed "The Bear Trap" — have closed out the PGA Tour's Honda Classic every year since 2007.

Shared MLB spring-training stadium since 1998

Roger Dean Stadium

Roger Dean Stadium, in Jupiter, opened February 28, 1998 as a shared spring-training home; the Montreal Expos trained there alongside the St. Louis Cardinals until swapping out for the Miami Marlins in 2002. It remains one of only two stadiums in Florida where two MLB clubs hold spring training every year, each with its own practice fields on the shared site.
