Here is some History on the Town of Davie:

Davie was founded by a group of settlers composed of workers from the Panama Canal Zone, therefore the original name of the town was Zona. Then Randolph P. Davie, a developer, bought about 27,000 acres in the area and the town name was changed to “Davie.”
Davie has always had a reputation as a “Western” town. It boasts a significant horse-owning population and once was home to many herds of cattle. In recent years, commercial and residential development has discouraged such practices but Davie still tries to maintain a “Western” feel. Pioneer City, a western theme park, was located across the street from Flamingo Gardens. It was built in the 1960s and closed a few years later.
