Located about fifteen miles inland from Tampa, Valrico is a rapidly-growing community that is fast becoming one of the most desirable suburbs in the region. The landscape of Valrico is almost entirely composed of residential neighborhoods, with a rental market dominated by single-family homes of every shape, size, and description (although there are significant numbers of apartments and condos scattered throughout the area as well). On the east side of town, the Sydney Dover trails provide an excellent venue for spending quality time outdoors without going far from home. Brandon Boulevard serves as a major commercial corridor in the area, lined with major shopping centers, grocers, and restaurants. Tampa is only minutes down the road, and a day at the beach is always just a short drive away.
