Zephyrhills West has subdivisions, shopping and it’s not very hilly

Zephyrhills West offers residential subdivisions close to retail and recreational facilities. "All of Zephyrhills is being developed. I think the west is a little bit more industrial, "says Bratisha Governor, a Realtor with Dalton Wade and team lead of the Governor Group. "There are a lot of mobile homes and 55-and-up neighborhoods. We have people come from out of state to retire."The city name, Zephyrhills, is connected to "zephyr," meaning a soft breeze, a word derived from Zephyrus, the Greek god of the west wind. Though the city has some gentle slopes, it's not overly hilly. Zephyrhills is in Central Florida's Pasco County, about 30 miles northeast of Tampa.

Ranch-style homes, contemporaries and manufactured homes

Whereas 20th-century, ranch-style homes are some of the oldest homes in Zephyrhills West, contemporaries and townhouses are the newest. The Florida Building Code, introduced in 2002, requires homes built from that year on to withstand hurricanes, with the inclusion of features like impact-resistant glass or shutters. Prices for standard single-family homes range from about $130,000 to $510,000, and age and size are the main factors. Zephyrhills West has many mobile or manufactured homes. Land may be owned or leased, and some developments are specifically for residents aged 55 or older. Mobile homes and manufactured homes range from about $50,000 to $430,000. "The mobile homes are cost-effective, and they feel a little bit safer because they are more inland," Governor says.

Shopping and dining: strip malls, downtown and Wesley Chapel

Zephyrhills West has plenty of shopping and dining areas, with several strip malls, including Zephyrhills Plaza off Fifth Avenue, part of state Route 54. The area has a Winn-Dixie, a Save A Lot, and eateries, including The Chowder House, which serves New England-style dishes. A couple of miles east of Zephyrhills Plaza is the city's downtown, offering independently owned shops and some historical buildings. Gall Boulevard, a portion of U.S. Route 301, runs north-south as a commercial corridor.

Zephyrhills residents may travel about 10 miles west to Wesley Chapel, for more suburban-style malls, brand-name businesses and specialty shopping. "Wesley Chapel is a booming area. There's Krate, which is an outdoor market concept. It's very family oriented. They have concerts and show movies on the lawn," says Governor, whose son is in The Kidpreneur Club, a youth vendor program participating in pop-up markets at Krate. Additionally, the Tampa Premium Outlets is about 15 miles from Zephyrhills West.

Most people drive, but GoPasco buses are also available

Zephyrhills West is mostly car-dependent, though people might walk within subdivisions, even without sidewalks. Another transportation option is the county's GoPasco bus system.
