Coconut Creek FloridaCoconut Creek, Florida is located in northwest Broward County, FL between Miami-Dade and Palm Beach Counties. The city is east of Coral Springs, FL west of Pompano Beach, FL north of Margate, FL and 30 minutes northwest of Fort Lauderdale, FL. The city took its name from the coconut trees that were planted in the area by early developers. R.E. Bateman, one of the developers, named Coconut Creek after combining the names of Miami – Dade County’s village of Indian Creek and the Miami neighborhood of Coconut Grove. Coconut Creek is widely recognized as a well-planned community with a unique environmental consciousness touting an abundance of trees, waterways, attractive landscaped roads, beautiful parks, and butterfly gardens throughout our neighborhoods. This is due to the City’s progressive planning approach to creating a unique life-style for our residents and businesses. Coconut Creek is the first in the State of Florida and eleventh in the country to be certified as a Community Wildlife Habitat. As the Butterfly Capital of the World, Coconut Creek is home to the world's largest butterfly aviary, Butterfly World; with over 80 species and 5,000 individual butterflies. The Florida Chapter of the American Planning Association (FAPA) has recognized the City’s "MainStreet Design Standards" project with an Award of Excellence in planning. A MainStreet concept is planned for the heart of Coconut Creek that includes a town center for residential, retail and commercial use. Coconut Creek also received a national honor with a grant from the Kodak American Greenways Awards Program for the creation of interpretative signs for City greenways and parks.
