Lehigh Acres, in eastern Lee County, was developed in the mid-1950s by Chicago businessman Lee Ratner. Having sold his pest control business, Ratner faced losing much of the proceeds to the steep capital gains tax of the day, and on hearing that cattle were a good investment for people in his position, he bought 18,000 acres and named it the Lucky Lee Ranch.
After ranching for a while, and with no development experience, Ratner joined Gerald H. Gould, a Florida advertising executive, Manuel Riskin, a Chicago accountant, and Edward Shapiro, a former Chicagoan in California real estate, to begin selling land at Lehigh Acres in 1954. Gould served as president of the development company until it was sold in 1972. Lehigh Acres has since spread far beyond the old ranch, and by 2020 it had more than 114,000 residents.
