OK—although Pasco County may not be first to mind when searching for your dream house around the Tampa Bay area, there are many incentives to living in this area. It’s actually a hidden gem for suburban living! Compared to the rest of the country, Pasco County’s cost of living is 12.70% lower than the average! The county is filled with new housing developments, and is making a push toward plenty of shopping and entertainment options.
I’m here to share my favorite neighborhoods to help you decide which might be a perfect fit for you. Oh and P.S., if you haven’t been to the Shops at Wiregrass… they are a MUST!
Trinity
Trinity is a fast-growing upscale community with a tri-county location optimal for commuters. The area consists of residential developments with moderate to higher priced single-family homes and luxury apartment complexes. If you’re looking for a quiet and simple suburban location, there is still plenty of opportunity for new home development. While you can dream up the vision of your home, I recommended that you have a realtor represent you in your transaction with the builder to avoid financial implications.

Wesley Chapel
Just 25 miles north of Downtown Tampa, Wesley Chapel is another popular commuter area. Much of the housing stock in Wesley Chapel was built relatively recently, which can indicate that the local Wesley Chapel economy is robust. Wesley Chapel is known for it’s upscale open-air retail and entertainment plaza, the Shops at Wiregrass. Another “hooray” for shoppers; Pasco County recently approved it’s first outlet mall in the area.

Land O’ Lakes
The population in Land O’ Lakes has boomed in the past 10 to 20 years, swallowing up nearby former towns such as Denham, Ehren, and Gowers Corner. New neighborhoods, shopping, and schools have been built to support the population growth, and have turned the area into a popular living destination. The Land O’ Lakes claim to fame, Dupree Gardens, was one of Florida’s very first tourist attractions as a private botanical garden—it’s now a historical marker!

I think you do a terrific job in showcasing various neighborhoods and i would think that people who are looking to buy would find this very useful.
When my friends who have migrated to Florida talk about their gated communities in Del Ray, Boynton & the like, I can say I know a bit about Tampa & it looks exciting, dynamic & inviting, thanks to you.
Thanks, Holly, for featuring these three (3) neighborhoods in Pasco County. They deserve to have been categorized as the top three among other neighborhoods.
Interesting to learn. Have only been in Tampa for 5 months but we love it 🙂 Anything beats the cold !
You make a compeling argument for moving to Florida, Holly. 😉 When I get ready to move someplace warm, I’ll be sure to check out these areas!
Even in South Texas it gets chilly so IN am looking accross the Gulf to Florida, and your information makes it easier to research. thanks
Of the three you mention, I’ve been to Wesley Chapel. Beautiful area. But now I have to put Land O’ Lakes and Dupree Gardens on my must-see list. I’m a sucker for gardens and history…and the two together? Dyn-o-mite!
