City facts

Overview

Brownsville sits in Florida, United States and is identified as a census-designated community. Its coordinates of 25.822°, -80.242° place it in the subtropical zone of the northern hemisphere. Public datasets list a population of roughly 16,936. Solar-resource estimates put the area at about 1,829 kWh/m² of solar irradiance per year with sunshine for roughly 72% of daylight hours. Open data lists it as essentially at sea level (1 m), covering a small area of about 5.903882 km². Such a low elevation typically indicates a coastal, deltaic, or alluvial setting. The latitude suggests humid, oceanic-influenced conditions moderated by proximity to sea level. That works out to roughly 2,869 residents per square kilometre — a high population density. Additional figures on demographics, climate, geography and points of interest appear in the sections that follow, all drawn from open public datasets.
