Davie is bordered by the Florida Everglades to the west and is only a few minutes’ drive away from the Ft. Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport. It is also part of the South Florida metropolitan area.

Davie was originally founded by a group of workers from the Panama Canal Zone. Because of this the town was named Zona. The town was renamed "Davie" when developer Randolph P. Davie bought about 27,000 acres in the area. Today Davie preserves its reputation as a "Western" town through town aesthetics and cultural and recreational facilities.

The Bergeron Rodeo Grounds are located in the historical western-themed district of downtown Davie and have long served as the most popular tourist attraction in Davie.

Davie has been a stop on the Pro Rodeo Circuit for over 220 Rodeos in the last 23 years.
