Welcome to Plantation
Plantation was incorporated in 1953 and evolved from a pine-forested farming area into a master-planned suburb. Today nearly 50 parks and greenways thread through the city’s six square miles, and ample canal systems mirror its Broward neighbors.
With one of the lowest crime rates in Broward, Plantation appeals to families and empty-nesters alike. Its public schools are well regarded, and proximity to both Sawgrass Mills and central Fort Lauderdale gives residents the best of shopping and urban amenities.
