Plantation is a city in Broward County in the state of Florida. It is located 8 miles west of Fort Lauderdale and about 33 miles north of Miami. It is also part of the South Florida metropolitan area.

Potato farmer and cattle baron, Frederick C. Peters, bought 10,000 acres of land in 1941 from the Everglades Plantation Company and spent the next few years developing the land into a small agricultural community. In 1953 this community was formally incorporated as the city of Plantation. The city went from strength to strength through the years and maintained a steady population growth. By 2000 it was home to several national and international companies including American Express, Motorola, Florida Power and Light, Plantation General Hospital and Westside Regional Medical Center. Today the official motto of Plantation is "The Grass is Greener."
