Palm Harbor grew from the 1860s settlement of Curlew into the community of Sutherland after the Sutherland Improvement Company bought land in the area, then took its current name in 1925. ## What Palm Harbor does to a home appliance. Population jumped from 5,215 in 1980 to 50,256 by 1990, an increase of more than 860 percent. The Orange Belt Railway reached the area in 1890 and Henry B. Plant's San Marino Hotel opened in 1885, both years before the community took the Palm Harbor name. As of the 2020 census the community held 31,238 housing units with an 11.4 percent vacancy rate, and special taxing districts established in 1985 still fund its local recreational facilities and library.
