Westchase a Top Suburb in Tampa

WESTCHASE A TOP SUBURB IN TAMPA 

North of Downtown Tampa in Hillsborough County

Considering a move  to Florida’s Gulf coast? Westchase offers a great choice for new Floridians (or locals)  in search of a vibrant area to live.

Just northwest of downtown Tampa, Westchase offers a suburban lifestyle combined with a convenient commute to Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Clearwater business centers and just a quick hop to Tampa International Airport. 

Westchase is ranked #1 for Tampa Bay and #4 as a top Florida Suburb.  There is always something to do among the various activities from shopping, golfing, going to local parks…and don’t forget the quaint nightlife scene.

The first Westchase homes started to break ground in the early 1990s,when Hillsborough County approved plans for a 10-square-mile master-planned community.  

Doubling in size since the year 2000, the current Westchase population has grown to about 24,000 people.  With an average age of 37 years old, the area mainly consists of young families who live in suburban communities around town. 

Driving into Westchase from the nearby Veterans Expressway or Sheldon Road, you’ll notice a lack of billboards and streetside signage along the main road.  

This may seem minor but if you are heading home from a busy workday, the beautifully landscaped and tree-lined avenue is an opportunity to decompress a bit on a stretch of what feels like a country road.  Don’t be surprised if you spot a deer on the way home.
