Mangonia Park was incorporated in 1947. The name Mangonia Park came after a petition to name it Town of Magnolia Park; the state chartered it as Mangonia Park because mango groves were common in the area in the early 1900s through the 1930s. The town uses a council-manager government with five at‑large council members serving three-year terms. Elections are held in March.

Transportation includes the Mangonia Park Station, the northern end of the Tri-Rail system, and PalmTran buses (Routes 20, 31, and 33). The ZIP code is 33407 and the area codes are 561 and 728.

The community is diverse. In 2000, most residents were African American, with other racial and ethnic groups represented as well. English is the primary language, with Spanish and Haitian Creole also spoken.
