History of Clearwater

Long ago, Clearwater was the site of Fort Harrison where wounded soldiers healed after fighting Indians on the Florida frontier. The United States Army began the fort in 1841 during the Second Seminole War. The fort closed in less than six months and the area was opened to settlers. The city was incorporated in 1891 and now has a population of 101,830.

Move to Clearwater

Incorporated in 1891, Clearwater experienced significant growth due to the Victorian interest in healthful living. The Florida climate brought many tourists to Clearwater via Henry B. Plant’s Orange Belt Railway and they happily settled into the area permanently. Since that time, Clearwater experienced the land boom of the 1920’s and the post-war population boom in the 1940’s and 1950’s. People from all around the United States live in Clearwater and move here everyday! It’s a great place to live and to raise a family.
