New Port Richey East is a small town in a big city, located approximately two miles outside of New Port Richey’s historic downtown district. New Port Richey’s Main Street is lined with local cafes, restaurants, bars, and shops, whereas New Port Richey East is mainly residential, aside from a few small businesses in town. The neighborhood is filled with small lakes, streams, and ponds, so many houses and apartments overlook the water. New Port Richey East features abundant trees and verdant lawns as well. Residents live within minutes of state parks like Werner-Boyce Salt Springs State Park, a salt marsh popular for fishing, bird watching, and paddling. Although nature surrounds the neighborhood, New Port Richey East sits 35 miles northwest of Tampa and 25 miles north of Clearwater, so residents enjoy proximity to big-city amenities and beautiful beaches as well.
