Pasco County includes over twenty-five golf courses, three State of Florida designated canoe trails and enormous areas set aside for outdoor recreation.
Mostly residential, the Pasco County lifestyle puts you within an easy commute of all that the Tampa Bay has to offer including Busch Gardens, the Florida Aquarium, the Lowry Park Zoo, historic Ybor City, the Straz Performing Arts Center and countless museums and galleries in Hillsborough and Pinellas County, but without the traffic and congestion generated by the crowds of tourists attracted to those cities during the “snowbird” season.
The county seat of Pasco County is Dade City. Other cities and towns within Pasco County include Holiday, Land O’Lakes, Lutz, New Port Richey, Odessa, Port Richey, Trinity, Wesley Chapel and Zephyrhills.
