Did you know that New Port Richey wasn’t always known by its current name? In the early days, it was called Hickory Hammock due to the rope-making pioneers and their hand-dug square wells. Eventually, the locals decided to pay homage to their neighboring city, Port Richey, hence adopting the name “New” Port Richey. This historic city, officially incorporated in 1924, is a testament to community spirit and resilience. 🏠✨
