Town N’ Country suburbs near FL-589

Deerfield is tucked west of Tampa International Airport, outside the nightlife and tourism of Downtown Tampa. It makes sense that this small neighborhood belongs to Town N’ Country. Residents enjoy proximity to several shopping centers and a busy state highway and coming home to compact cul-de-sacs, old oak trees and ponds. Mobbly Bay and Courtney Campbell Causeway connect Town N’ Country locals to St. Pete and Clearwater beaches.
