Black Gold Capital of the South 1.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) I’ve lived in Belle Glade for several years. Most of the people living in Belle Glade are agricultural workers. The area produces sugar and various vegetables.

The people here are friendly, but city services are lacking. The best areas In Belle Glade are the newer areas generally located outside of town.

The soil is the greatest asset of the region with the “black gold” label aptly describing the richness and value. The best areas of Belle Glade are outside of the city limits. Read Less
