Zephyrhills West, FL

102 Apartments for Rent

The Zephyrhills area earned its motto as the "city of pure water" thanks in large part to its natural springs, which offer the nation's best spring water.

Zephyrhills West is one of several census-designated places (CDPs) immediately surrounding the city of Zephyrhills in Pasco County, FL. Like its centrally located counterpart to the east, Zephyrhills West derives its name from founder and Civil War veteran Howard B. Jeffries, who named the city because of the zephyr-like breezes traversing the area.

Moving to Zephyrhills West

However, that doesn't mean that rental apartments are in short supply. With the right amount of searching, you can easily find an affordable place to live. Just keep in mind that the asking price for the typical property rental may be a bit higher than in other places throughout the state, thanks to its proximity to the Tampa-Clearwater-St. Petersburg metro area.
