Tree canopyPlantation’s natural environment is unsurpassed by other South Florida cities. Situated among thousands of trees are safe, friendly neighborhoods, world-class recreation facilities and a stable business community. It is geographically centered in Broward County, and is home to a number of large national firms, including Motorola Solutions, National Beverage, Magic Leap and Kaplan University. The City of Plantation was incorporated in April of 1953, and has expanded into a growing, vibrant municipality, with a residential population exceeding 94,000.

The City of Plantation is rich in amenities, a competitive business environment and beautifully landscaped streets. You will find an urban environment intermixed with a “hometown” lifestyle, achieved through thoughtful comprehensive planning and the vision and support of our City Council, staff and volunteer organizations.

We invite you to learn more about your “hometown” – from its history to current demographics; from places of worship to educational institutions for all ages. You’ll also find information on the many amenities Plantation has to offer: local golf courses, parks & recreation facilities, shopping, and even our own City Library. And if you are new to the area, or just have a question, we have a complete list of service providers.
