Learn More About Tamarac, Florida
Tamarac is a medium-sized city of about 65,000 people situated in Broward County, Florida. The community, which boasts a diverse population, covers an area of about 12 square miles, with around 4 percent of this made of water. It is included in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Pompano Metropolitan Area.
Originally conceived as a bedroom community, Tamarac was developed in the 1960s. Ken Behring, a young developer from the Midwest, arrived during that period to buy land in the area. He had the intention of developing an adult community consisting of two-bedroom, maintenance-free homes. The first development was done east of State Road 7 in 1963, the year Tamarac was incorporated. The other neighborhoods in the city were gradually developed in subsequent years. Behring named the community after the Tamarac Country Club in neighboring Oakland Park.
Tamarac experienced tremendous growth in the 10-year period leading to 1980, with population rising from 5,193 to 29,376. The number of residents was estimated at 64,681 in 2015. The city boasts an ethnically-diverse population. The number of people living here who are of Latin American or Caribbean origin has risen over the years. After English, Spanish was the next-most popular first language there as of 2000 census. The level of education in Tamarac is just about better than that of a typical U.S. city. The percentage of adult residents with at least a Bachelor's degree is calculated around the national average. But the number of those with a high school diploma is greater than the national average.
The more popular of the communities in the city include Woodlands, Woodmont Tract and Mainlands of Tamarac Lakes. The Woodlands in Tamarac, one of the more recent neighborhoods here, is a world-class country club community featuring about 900 single-family housing units. Its development was done after that of the Mainlands of Tamarac Lakes, which lies west of State Road 7. The Woodmont Tract Community will attract those people who love nature with its lush landscape, amazing local wildlife, including the great horned owl, and superb amenities, such as an over 2,150-foot long boardwalk and an over 1,600-foot long pedestrian trail.
