bullshite ... wanna know how I know?
Because I own a home in Jupiter - bought it to be near my youngest daughter when I'm down there.
Jupiter is ultra wealthy and becoming more-so every day. Is Palm Beach wealthier, yes, for the time being but it's changing fast.
Is Jupiter a No Man's Land? WTF does that even mean? All The Trumps have places there, as do many other celebrities, athletes, musicians. Jupiter has a nicer down town than Palm Beach imho ... which is why we went with a place within walking distance of downtown but the marina area, the beaches, the restaurants ... either you've lost your frickin' mind or you've never been off Loxahatchee.

I have worked for all kinds of rich folks in my life and Palm Beach has some wealthy folks, not doubt, but Jupiter had the really wealthy but really quiet folks. Like Indian Creek back in the day. Indian Creek was like the Forbes 50 as they only had 12 to 24 lots and a golf course. Only one bridge too get on or off and full time security. Woolworth's and Harriman's called it their summer "cottages"!
Then in the 80 the crazy sheik with the cats, one of the Gibb brothers, and other new money got in there.
Payson's (Vanderbilt and Whitneys in that line) was up at Jupiter instead. They are the real money the new flash wishes they had. Have not been to Jupiter in at least a decade but that was the Florida place to be for quiet billionaires.
Miami still has money but they let them build all the high rises down on North Beach and crapped up Bal Harbor big time. Coops kept it small and nice, high rise condos crapped it up. If you have a wealthy area and you get rid of the amenities the wealthy no longer want to live there. They filled in the boat club and built a high rise. They built over the old tennis facilities. They built on the park. Trump got the old mob carpet joints in Hollywood (the original Las Vegas) and put up cheap condos that are falling apart after about 20 years.
When Mrs Tuttle still owned most of Maimi my family member could ride up and down the original beaches with nothing but trees and maybe 2 houses passed on the whole ride. When they developed it in the late 1800's and early 1900's it was all about small winter places that were simple and understated. Now it is ostentatious crap that is shoddily built. This "greed is good" thing that started in the 80's is the downfall of this country.
