In Florida, there were nearly 2,000 new swimming pool construction permits with a total value of approximately $157 million added to the HBW database during the month of June; this reflects just over a 20 percent month-over-month increase in new swimming pool construction statewide.
Upon review of the latest HBW construction data reports for the five major regions of Florida (Southwest, Tampa, Southeast, Orlando, Jacksonville), we found that the greatest volume of new pool construction activity took place in the southwestern portion of the state (765 permits), while the highest average value of new swimming pool construction could be found in Jacksonville (average value: $93,993).
