Wikipedia reports that there is an acute care hospital, a medical center, a small library, four elementary schools, one middle school and one high school.

The nearby unincorporated township of Roseland was founded earlier than Sebastian retains much of its old-Florida charm, particularly along the banks of the St. Sebastian River.

Sebastian residents include many retirees and families. Publix supermarket and Sebastian River Medical Center are the largest employers, followed closely by city and county government.
