Pompano Beach Airpark is also the Home of the Goodyear Blimp!

*[The city's name is derived from the Florida pompano
(Trachinotus carolinus), a fish found off the Atlantic coast]

There had been scattered settlers in the area since at least the
mid-1880s, but the first documented permanent residents of the Pompano area were George Butler and Frank Sheen and their families, who arrived in 1896 as railway employees. The first train arrived in the small Pompano settlement on February 22, 1896. It is said that Sheen gave the community its name after jotting down on his survey of the area the name of the fish he had for dinner. The coming of the railroad led to development farther west from the coast. In 1906, Pompano became the southernmost settlement in newly created Palm Beach County. That year, the tall Hillsboro Lighthouse was completed on the beach, and the rest is history!
