The city of Lauderhill was incorporated on June 20th, 1959, the “Founding Father” was a builder/developer -Herbert Sadkin. The city was originally going to be named "Sunnydale", but William Safire, a friend of the developer, convinced him to change his mind. Safire felt that "Sunnydale" sounded like a neighborhood in Brooklyn. Up until the late 1980s-early 1990s, Lauderhill was mostly a retirement Community and a second home for northerners, especially in the Inverrary neighborhood.

When the first houses were developed in Lauderhill, very few people wanted to live in the “Dairy Farm country.” In the early years, there were actually far more cows than people within the borders of the City. Only until only recently, traces of the MCArthur Dairy Farm were still evident. Thousands of acres in early Lauderhill were lands full of grazing cows that produced fresh milk for the widely known dairy.

Lauderhill offers a vibrant mix of diverse cultures. City facilities include several award winning parks, the Lauderhill Sports Complex, two community centers, two public swimming pools, bridge clubs, scrabble clubs, dance nights, dive-in pool evenings and much more.

In 1970, the Inverrary Country Club was built, and in 1972 its golf course became home to the Jackie Gleason Inverrary Classic. Gleason himself built his final home on the golf course.

On November 9, 2007 the Main Event cricket field was opened at the Central Broward Regional Park the Main. On 22nd May, 2010 this became the first ground to host an international evetn between two full members of the ICC on United States soil. The park features many other sports venues as well.

In terms of the Commercial Property, Lauderhill was at the forefront of commercial development as well. Next to the Dairy Farm, the Lauderhill Mall, which opened in 1966, was the first enclosed air-conditioned mall to open in the southeastern United States. The land where the mall is located used to be a place to trap alligators and other animals.

Generally, Lauderhill has undergone all kinds of changes. 'Firsts' for Lauderhill were and still are very common. Today, Lauderhill is still generally undergoing changes that take the city to the current 'Renaissance' we are in today.
