History

Prior to the 1950s, Town ‘n’ Country was primarily natural areas and cattle farms. In 1958, the LaMonte-Shimberg Corporation purchased a 525-acre dairy farm from the Webb family near the Hillsborough Avenue-Memorial intersection to construct the Town ‘n’ Country Park subdivision, making the area one of Tampa’s first suburban communities. By the time the original developers and builders of Town ‘n’ Country had built their last house, the area covered more than 2,000 acres and stretched over three miles from Memorial Highway on the south to north of Waters Avenue. In this area, nearly 8,000 single-family homes and townhouses were built from 1958 to 1978 by LaMonte-Shimberg.

By 1971, Tampa International Airport opened near the area, resulting in massive suburban sprawl, along the Hillsborough Avenue corridor. Due to the little zoning regulations in Hillsborough County at the time, CBS 60 Minutes did a segment on the poor infrastructure and negative environmental impact in Tampa Bay. Town ‘n’ Country and its surrounding areas closer to the bay. They were the prime focus of the segment, in part to the large amounts of raw sewage draining in to the bay and the heavy congestion along Hillsborough Avenue.

Town’n’Country has long been known for its large Latino population. As early as 1968, the former Town ‘n’ Country theater, at 7575 West Hillsborough Avenue; would even alternate films between English and Spanish, or English with Spanish subtitles. As of the 2020 U.S. Census, Latino’s make up the majority of Town ‘n’ Country’s residents; most of whom are Cuban and Puerto Rican. Although, in recent years the area has seen a large influx of Dominicans, Brazilians, Venezuelans, Columbians and Mexicans settling in the area, making the community a diverse ethnic enclave of Latino’s. Surrounding communities, such as Egypt Lake-Leto and Drew Park, also happen to be majority Latino communities. Many locals tend to refer to this entire area as West Tampa, which is actually incorrect; as the actual boundaries of Old West Tampa are north of Kennedy Boulevard to Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard (formerly Buffalo Avenue), then West of Rome Avenue to Dale Mabry Highway.
