City of Tamarac
About
Tamarac is a vibrant and growing South Florida community situated in the heart of Broward County between the Florida Everglades and the Atlantic Ocean, just moments away from three world-ranked airports and seaports with easy access to three major highways. We are a multicultural, multi-generational thriving community in a metro area of 6 million people with an exceptional quality of life in a sunny, warm climate.
Tamarac’s residential population has grown by 19% in the last decade as part of South Florida’s regional population surge. Originally a retirement community, Tamarac’s demographics are quickly changing. As new families move in, the population is becoming younger and median incomes are rising.
The business community is investing heavily in Tamarac. Developers have added thousands of new residential units with more underway, and new hotels are being built and have recently opened. A major mixed-use project and new downtown area, Tamarac Village, is under construction. Our Tamarac Commerce Park is thriving with new companies and expansions recently announced including Amazon, New Vision Pharmaceuticals headquarters, City Furniture’s headquarters, Sonny’s CarWash Factory headquarters, Medify Air, Wheel Pros and The Lotus Group.
We’re focusing on the future in Tamarac, and it shows. Our economic development efforts are concentrated on revitalizing our commercial corridors and shopping centers. We have a vision for our commercial redevelopment opportunities and recently launched two economic development grants to incentivize transformative commercial projects.
The City is investing in an expanded fiber optic network for greater connectivity and smart infrastructure, as well as our recreation infrastructure including new parks, aquatic facilities and upgraded amenities throughout the city. Tamarac is home to two world-class golf courses, including City-owned Colony West, which through public-private partnership recently opened a new golf clubhouse, restaurant and event center with an adjacent new hotel opening soon.
Why Tamarac? Tamarac is committed to excellence, always. It is our mission to make a difference and to achieve results. We are a financially stable, resilient and business-friendly community with a vision for the future and opportunities for growth. This is why businesses and investors realize that for Tamarac, the time is now.
