Margate occupies about nine square miles in northwestern Broward County, bordered by Coconut Creek to the east and Coral Springs to the north. The city was incorporated in 1955 when a developer named Jack Marqusee began converting drained Everglades land into residential lots, merging his surname with the nearby canal gates to coin the name. Growth was steady through the 1970s and 1980s as Broward County's population boomed with retirees and young families relocating from the northeastern United States.
The Sawgrass Expressway forms Margate's western boundary, and State Road 7 (U.S. 441) cuts through its commercial center. Shopping plazas along these corridors house the mix of chain retailers, Latin American restaurants, and Caribbean grocery stores that reflect the city's demographic shift over the past two decades. Margate's population is now significantly more diverse than the mostly white retiree community of the 1980s, with growing Haitian, Jamaican, and Colombian communities.
Calypso Cove, the city's public waterpark, draws families during summer months. The city operates several parks and a community center that host organized sports leagues. Margate's housing stock is predominantly single-family homes built between 1960 and 1990, with pockets of townhouse and condominium developments near the major roadways. Property prices remain lower than neighboring Coral Springs and Parkland, which positions Margate as an affordable entry point into western Broward County.
