Angeline vs Mirada vs Epperson — Pasco County New Construction Comparison 2026
Angeline (6,200ac, Moffitt Speros open Jan 2026, STEM school, $249K-$450K+) vs Mirada (15-ac MetroLagoon open, #14 RCLCO, $269K-$793K) vs Epperson (first US Crystal Lagoon 2018). Ryan Brown FL BK3626873.
Angeline vs Mirada vs Epperson — Pasco County 2026
Three Pasco County master-planned communities, three fundamentally different value propositions. Independent side-by-side for buyers choosing between the Suncoast Pkwy corridor (Angeline) and the I-75 / SR-52 corridor (Mirada, Epperson).
Epperson — The Established Option
Epperson in Wesley Chapel is the oldest of the three communities — the first Crystal Lagoon community in the United States, opened 2018. Its 7.36-acre Crystal Lagoon is smaller than Mirada’s 15-acre MetroLagoon and much smaller than Angeline’s planned 5-acre lagoon, but it has a 6+ year head start. Epperson has established resale market activity, mature landscaping, and multiple completed phases. For buyers who want to avoid construction noise and prefer a more mature neighborhood feel, Epperson is the choice. For buyers who want the freshest product, the most ambitious infrastructure, or the Moffitt anchor, Angeline is the choice.
Decision Framework
| Buyer Priority | Best Fit | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Lagoon — open NOW — largest possible | Mirada | 15-acre MetroLagoon open; Angeline lagoon not yet built |
| Moffitt / medical proximity | Angeline | Speros FL campus is at Angeline; only option for Moffitt proximity |
| STEM school for children | Angeline | Angeline Academy of Innovation open on-site |
| Most established neighborhood | Epperson | Open 2018; 6+ years of maturity; active resale market |
| Lowest entry price | Angeline (Lennar Villas) | Lennar Villas from $249,500 vs. $269K at Mirada |
| ULTRAFi internet included | Mirada | 500/500 Mbps symmetric fiber; not offered at Angeline or Epperson |
| Investment / appreciation play | Angeline | Moffitt employment anchor is the strongest long-term demand driver |
