The town of Palm Beach in Florida has its own Billionaires Row where opulent waterfront houses face sparkling waters and coconut trees.

It is also home to President-elect Donald Trump whose Mar-a-Lago mansion will no doubt become known as the southern White House.

Although Trump has been coming there for some years there will be many changes when the new President Trump makes his first visit as leader of the United States.

But as TRT World's David Foster found out, most of the local community is used to the swagger and sweep of celebrity.
