== Fun facts ==
* Politically, the county has been a swing area over the past quarter century. However, three of the last four elections have trended strongly Republican in Presidential elections, with 2008 being the exception. Although the GOP had the most votes in 2008, it was by a much smaller margin than the previous 2004 election or the subsequent 2012 and 2016 elections.
* Trilby is the southernmost community along the Withlacoochee State Trail.
* Several nudist resorts are located in Pasco County.
* A good bit of the Green Swamp Wilderness Preserve extends into Pasco County.
* Many of the communities in West Pasco are retirement areas for the most part, along with Tampa suburbs and they provide plenty of fishing opportunities.
* St. Leo is best known as the home of Saint Leo University, Holy Name Monastery and Saint Leo Abbey.
* Northwest of Tampa, Odessa had been an area of open spaces, ranching, and horse properties for years. More recently it has seen many suburban property developments as Tampa's population expands.
* Shady Hills is home to an active pigeon racing group.
