==History==
[[File:Immokalee ACL Depot.jpg|thumb|left|Former Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Immokalee Depot]]
The region was settled by the [[Calusa]] people. It was inhabited by the [[Seminole]] centuries later, after they moved down from northern Florida. Initially the settlement was known as ''Gopher Ridge'' by the Seminole and [[Miccosukee]] nations.<ref name=NYTimes>{{cite news|last=Mascia|first=Jennifer|title=Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Immokalee, Fla.|url=http://bittman.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/06/15/everything-you-ever-wanted-to-know-about-immokalee-fla/|access-date=September 29, 2012|newspaper=New York Times|date=June 15, 2011}}</ref> ''Immokalee'' means "your home" in the [[Mikasuki language]].<ref name=NYTimes />

When the swamps were drained in the region, agriculture became the dominant industry. European-American hunters, trappers, Native American traders, cowmen, and missionaries moved in before permanent villages developed.<ref name=NYTimes /> The first permanent settlement was founded in 1872.<ref name=NYTimes /> In 1921, the [[Atlantic Coast Line Railroad]] extended its [[Haines City Branch]] south to Immokalee.  The railroad was removed in 1989.<ref name=NYTimes />

The Immokalee area is heavily agricultural. It is one of the nation's major centers of [[tomato]] growing.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/06/14/the-true-cost-of-tomatoes/|first=Mark |last=Bittman |date=June 14, 2011|title=The True Cost of Tomatoes}}</ref> In 1960, [[CBS News]] anchor [[Edward R. Murrow]] reported on the region's farms' working conditions for his ''[[Harvest of Shame]]'' report for ''[[CBS Reports]],'' which described the harsh lives of migrant workers.<ref name=NYTimes />

WAFZ-FM (92.1 FM) is a full-power FM radio station licensed to Immokalee, Florida. The station plays a variety of hits in the Regional Mexican format. In the 1980s, WAFZ also played Tejano music on its sister station WAFZ-AM. In its beginnings WAFZ was WZOR-AM 1490 and played English-language adult contemporary music and news in the morning and until 3pm. Then it changed its format to Regional Mexican/Tejano. The early DJs who worked there were Gabino Soliz, "EL CHAVO ALEGRE", and Irma Ayala. The station continued on the air until the mid-1990s, when it went silent until what is now WAFZ was bought by Glades Media Company LLC, and transmitted simultaneously what WAFZ-FM was playing (a regional Mexican format). The current format of WAFZ is a young Regional Mexican, playing newer top 40 hits of the genre.

WAFZ's programming is also heard on WAFZ AM 1490 in Immokalee.

Immokalee used to be served by the [[Seaboard Coast Line Railroad]] (formerly [[Atlantic Coast Line Railroad|Atlantic Coast Line]]), which ran a branchline from [[Palmdale, Florida|Palmdale]] through Immokalee to [[Everglades City, Florida|Everglades City]]. The line generated considerable agricultural-related traffic. The line was cut back to Sunniland south of Immokalee in the 1950s and then abandoned to the mainline at Palmdale in the 1980s. This left Immokalee without rail service.

The main road through Immokalee is [[Florida State Road 29|State Road 29]]. Other important county roads through the region are CR 29A and CR 846.

[[Immokalee Airport]] is a public-use [[general aviation]] airport {{convert|1|mi}} northeast of the [[central business district]]. The closest airport for commercial service is [[Southwest Florida International Airport]].
