Delray Beach, Fla., located between Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach, has emerged as the country’s largest and most vibrant recovery community, with many halfway houses and 5,000 people a week attending 12-step meetings, the New York Times reported on Nov. 16.

The recovery community in Delray Beach exists well beyond the walls of the community’s rehabilitation centers, with recovery radio shows, a recovery motorcycle club, and a coffeehouse with its own therapy group. Because it is a compact area, recovering people cross paths daily along the shops and bistros of Atlantic Avenue, oblivious to the tourists and “normies,” their term for sober people not in recovery.
