Wellington Florida is one of the greatest towns in the World. We have to be clear about this because there is a Wellington New Zealand out there that is also really nice and gets a lot if "internet press."On an average day you will be walking around in Wellington, Florida and you will see people wearing their "horse pants" or you may see somebody famous at the Wellington Green Mall.

Looking at this information from City Data , I am surprised with the median age. I always thought Wellington had an older more sophisticated crowd, or maybe that is just when the snow birds come in for polo season.
Fun Things To Do In Wellington
Palm Beach Polo - Polo Rules in Wellington! I believe polo season runs from January through April . All the snow birds are here and all the people from town who like to walk around in their "horse pants".
Wellington Green Mall - Wellington Green mall is a very pleasant mall that is easy to navigate. The mall is a always hopping and is a good alternative on an especially hot day or a rainy day. There are all of the major store brands and then some. It has an amazing food court. Last time I was there they were handing out Philly Cheesesteak crepes.
Realty Elite USA - Wellington is definitely the upscale town of the western communities. If you are in need of a Realtor, I strongly reccommend Realty Elite USA which has its headquarters just east off of State Road 7 on Forest Hill Blvd in Wellington. I believe they have 100 agents waiting to help you . http://www.realtyeliteusa.com
Ultima Gym - Greg Massaro - This is the true Greg Massaro, not the one who has been adopted by Wellington New Zealand. Greg is a personal trainer at Ultima Gym. Ultima Gym is a great gym that gets visits from the likes of Bruce Springstein. Greg's video has already gone viral.
Wellington Tennis and Swim Center - Wellington Tennis Center is a place I play tennis every now and then. They have 16 public hard true courts and an elaborate play and swim facility just off to the side. The town hall is across the way in the front of the lot.
Wal-Mart, Costco, Home Depot , Lowes - All of the conveniences of the major stores as well without having to travel too far.
Back Street Cafe - Back Streets is a great neighborhood type bar and grill. I used to have my office situated right next to it in Wellington. Usually you will see the same crowd day in and day out. really good food too.
