A quiet community of
around 18,000 in northern Hillsborough County, Lutz received the
distinction of inclusion on a MSN list of the “100 Best
Places or Cities to Live” in 2004. Another claim to
fame for this quiet community is the fact that it was used extensively
as a filming location for Tim Burton’s Edward Scissorhands
movie, starring Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder.
Known for its
small-town atmosphere, friendly residents, and privately owned family
businesses, Lutz is an ideal place to buy real estate. People
who buy a home in Lutz enjoy the conveniences of bustling Tampa Bay
without the traffic and heavy population density. Lutz
historic sites include a replica of the town’s original train
depot, the city public library, and the original post office, which now
serves as an art gallery.
Lutz
residents’ median age is 38 years, and their median household
income an impressive $66,000. Many make the quick commute to
jobs in Tampa, a major Gulf of Mexico metropolitan area boasting an
active and ever-expanding art and cultural community, a vibrant
business economy, and world-class entertainment and shopping.
St. Petersburg offers a diverse number of arts and history museums,
while Clearwater is famed for its beaches and resorts. Other
nearby cities include Land O’ Lakes, Odessa, Wesley Chapel,
Temple Terrace, Thonotosassa, Oldsmar, and Zephyrhills. Quick
area navigation via I-275, I-75, and State Road 589 (the Suncoast
Parkway/ Veterans Expressway) makes reaching the city, the white sand
Suncoast beaches, or I-4 to the theme parks of Orlando a breeze.
