Living in Homestead, FL
Homestead got its start in 1898, making it the second-oldest city in Miami-Dade County area. The area was a natural fit for homesteaders, hence the city's name. Because of the intervention of the railroad and WPA projects leading up to World War II, many people began seeing Homestead's charms in the first half of the 20th century. People continue to flock to the city, as evidenced by Homestead's astronomical growth. Today, the city is home to more than 60,000 residents, according to the 2010 U.S. Census Bureau, and that number is expected to rise as more people find out about everything that Homestead has to offer.
Homestead Attractions and Special Events
To the west of the city is Everglades National Park, one of the country's largest and most unique green spaces.
