Facts for Renters
- The town was originally known as Hillsboro in 1918 when it was first discovered. The name was later changed to Belle Glade, which is short for "Belle of Glades." The population was less than 500 people when the name was initially changed. The town's first fire chief was Lawrence Will, the son of Thomas Will, the founder of Okeelanta.
- During World War II, nearly 250 German prisoners of war were situated in the town. The prisoners worked in a bean-canning factory or in sugar cane fields, where they were paid 80 cents a day. Local farmers were hesitant to hire them and had to be convinced by a county agricultural agent.
- Today, the town is still known for its sugar cane industry. The city's motto is "her soil is her fortune." The area still owns the last swing bridge, which connects to the Herbert Hoover Dam.
