South Masaryktown

South Masaryktown is best known within Florida for its ties to Masaryktown, a nearby community named for Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, the first president of Czechoslovakia. Set in Hernando County on west-central Florida’s low coastal plain, it is inland from the Gulf of Mexico and connected to surrounding settlements by U.S. Route 41. The place name preserves a notable chapter of Czechoslovak immigration to Florida, while the local setting remains distinctly rural and residential rather than urban. Woods, open lots and roadside businesses typify this stretch between the Gulf Coast and Florida’s interior.
