Pleasant City (West Palm Beach)
Pleasant City is a neighborhood in West Palm Beach, Florida north of 15th Street, and east of Dunbar Village and the Florida East Coast Railway. Established in 1905 and incorporated into the city limits in 1912, it was developed for African American workers who were employed at area hotels.

While the neighborhood is plentiful by historic means, it has suffered from urban decay. Pleasant City, and the surrounding communities of North Tamarind and Old Northwood, are classified as low-income because of high levels of poverty. This is also where the majority of the city's black population lives.
Pleasant City is also known for being the hub of high level drug trafficking to the rest of South Florida. Many chains of organized crime have and are operating in the neighborhood, including nationwide known street gangs such as the Bloods, Crips, and Black Gangster Deciples.
However, there is great hope for Pleasant City. The children are the future and they will restore the neighborhood. With community pride and respect on the rise Pleasant City has hope to once again be a community of prosperity.〔Slater, Stephanie. ("Gangs in Palm Beach County" ), ''The Palm Beach Post'', 2007.
