Explore Tamarac

 Settle into the comfort of affordable South Florida living amidst the sun-kissed palms, tropical elegance, and quiet respite of Tamarac, "The City for Your Life."  

Unlock the door to a suburban lifestyle defined by an abundance of recreation, accessible luxury, and a seamless connection to everyday essentials and major Metropolitan areas as you sink into the laid-back charm of Tamarac, a diverse city in the western core of Broward County. 

Officially incorporated on July 19, 1963, Tamarac covers a total area of 12.1 square miles, with Coral Springs at its north, the thriving municipality of Sunrise to its south, the Fort Lauderdale cities of North Lauderdale and Lauderhill to the east, and the undeveloped land of the Everglades to its western edges. 

 It is home to 71,897 residents as of the latest US Census. 

 Feast your eyes on Tamarac, a city with a name that may not ring a bell, unlike some of its more famous South Florida neighbors, yet makes up for it with comfort, convenience, and a continuous pursuit of expansion, success, and development. 

Offering a central location in western Broward, Tamarac prides itself as a growing and thriving community, from its roots as a retirement enclave into a diverse residential paradise that welcomes families, professionals, and those seeking a well-rounded suburban lifestyle with everything essential just around the corner.

 Yes, it's true — Tamarac is far from a bustling urban hub, nor is it a popular tourist magnet. 

Yet, it never loses its spark, thanks to its ease of living and its coveted selection of well-kept neighborhoods, plentiful parks, and community-focused amenities that make everyday life feel effortlessly balanced. 

Oh, but don't get us wrong — if you ever DO find yourself on this side of Broward County, boredom will be the least of your worries. 

While it may not have Fort Lauderdale's 24/7 buzz or Hollywood Beach's pristine sands, there will always be something exciting in Tamarac, whether you're in the mood for outdoor adventures, local entertainment, or a quick escape to a nearby hotspot. 

 One thing locals love? Tamarac's parks and green spaces, spearheaded by its most famous nature spots,  Caporella Park , a beautiful lakeside retreat where visitors can fish, picnic, or just enjoy a relaxing afternoon, and  Tamarac Veterans Park , a tropical oasis perched on a peaceful canal and home to the  Tamarac Veterans Memorial. 

 Are you looking to cool off? Pair Mother Nature's beauty with a splash session at  Waters Edge Park , a modern outdoor space with playgrounds, walking trails, a dedicated splash pad, and sports courts, perfect for families and active residents.

Meanwhile, for an in-depth nature fix, head to  Woodmont Natural Area  , a 21-acre sanctuary embellished by towering cypress trees and wetland habitats, providing a glimpse of South Florida's untouched beauty.

 But greens aren't the only thing Tamarac has covered. 

Here, golfers can tee off at  Colony West Golf Club  , a championship-level course with pristine fairways, a full-service clubhouse, and a casual restaurant where you can unwind after a round.

For a thrill leaning more towards luxury and lots of shopping, you're just minutes from Pompano Beach's   Festival Marketplace  , a massive indoor flea market packed with unique finds, fashion bargains, and international eats.

 Sawgrass Mills   — a 2.7-million-square-foot retail mecca with luxury brands, unbeatable outlet deals, and restaurants — is also just a quick drive from Tamarac and known to be one of the country's largest outlet and value shopping malls.

On top of all that, Tamarac's location gives you an advantage, especially if you're planning a trip to some of South Florida's biggest attractions! 

Though the city itself embraces a quieter suburban rhythm, it's just a short drive from the Florida Turnpike and the Sawgrass Expressway, putting you at Fort Lauderdale's beaches, Miami's vibrant entertainment scene, Coral Springs' lively shopping and dining districts, and everything else you love about the Sunshine State, in no time. 

So whether you're here to settle in or just passing through, Tamarac proves that you don't need to be flashy to be a fantastic place to call home. 

 Not one bit.
