Oh Florida! You wonderful, wonderful state. That's the common belief held among most Americans and you know what, those people are right. The Sunshine State has it all: beautiful sunny weather, amazing natural beauty, and some of the best places to live in the entire country.

While Florida is home to some of the country's biggest and most vibrant cities like Miami and Orlando, it's places like Citrus Park that has made the Sunshine State such a hot destination. An unincorporated census-designated place that is situated in gorgeous Hillsborough County, Citrus Park is home to over 20,000 residents.

Boasting a high quality of life and some of the most unique attractions in a state that practically wrote the book on originality, Citrus Park is one of Florida's fastest growing communities. Its location ten miles away from the big city delights of Tampa definitely helps Citrus Park's reputation. With its lower cost of living and higher quality of life, Citrus Park is an excellent alternative to living in Tampa for people that are attracted to the big city appeal of Tampa.

However, Citrus Park is more than a satellite community. Home to Big Cat Rescue, a non-profit sanctuary for large cats that is open to the public, Citrus Park is also the home of the famed chimpanzee J. Fred Muggs. These attractions make Citrus Park an exciting place to visit. However, its excellent schools and beautiful homes make the community an excellent place to live.
