Parkland, Residential city in Broward County, United States.
Parkland extends over 14.35 square miles with 12.50 square miles of land and 1.84 square miles of water at an elevation of 4 meters.
The Florida State Legislature officially established Parkland as a city on July 10, 1963, following the initiative of Representative Emerson Alsworth.
The city maintains strict zoning regulations to preserve its green spaces, reflecting its motto 'Environmentally Proud' through community planning and development.
Residents access multiple recreational facilities including parks, sports fields, and walking trails, with convenient connections to South Florida's major transportation routes.
Until the mid-1990s, the municipality deliberately avoided commercial development, maintaining zero stores or traffic lights within its boundaries.
