About Town &
County
Town & Country, located between Tampa Bay and the Upper Tampa Bay Trail, is a residential and commercial Town 'n' Country neighborhood with canal-lined streets and broad, low-rise shopping corridors. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Hillsborough Avenue and Memorial Highway junction, where plazas, taquerias, bakeries, and service storefronts keep the sidewalks in motion. Mid-century ranch homes and newer townhome pockets sit beside mangrove edges and small lakes that shape daily routes. Big Cat Rescue and Rocky Point Park add a distinctly Tampa outdoors-and-wildlife counterpoint to the retail grid. The Upper Tampa Bay Trail threads through nearby green space for long, uninterrupted rides. Evenings often orbit local dining rooms such as Terra Sur Cafe and La Teresita Restaurant.
