Largo, FL MLS Search Largo is located just northwest of St. Petersburg between Clearwater and Indian Rocks Beach. The city of Largo is an affordable, friendly town with tree-lined streets, award winning parks and one of the lowest crime rates in the state of Florida. The town was originally named for the largest lake, which no longer exists today due to the Cross Bayou Drainage District. Because of Largo’s central location and fertile agriculture, it quickly became known as “Citrus City,” eventually becoming the center of the area’s Citrus production. By 1970, Largo's population reached more than 22,000, and a new City of Progress was born.

Largo is located in the heart of Florida’s “Sun Coast,” only a short drive to the stunning Gulf Coast beaches, world class sports facilities and museums. There are many fine restaurants in the downtown area, along with local gift shops and antique shops and the Largo Cultural Center. In addition, Largo Central Park is a beautiful, 70-acre park located in the heart of the city. It features rolling hills, fountains and a landmark clock tower and a state-of-the-art playground that is one of the only in the region that is completely accessible to disabled users.

The facilities also include an interpretive kiosk, a two-story observation tower, a three-quarter mile trail for hiking and biking, and a butterfly garden and native wildflower plantings.

The LCC offers a year-long calendar of over 150 events that feature community performances, and a diverse list of entertainers.
