Lakefront pool home near Orlando

Life in Orlando, FL

Orlando is the county seat of Orange County and the gateway to Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort. Past the theme parks, it is a city of lakes, brick streets and walkable Main Street districts like College Park, Ivanhoe Village and Audubon Park. Its dining scene now draws MICHELIN Guide attention, with starred and Bib Gourmand spots across town.

The Army set up Fort Gatlin here on November 9, 1838, and cattlemen Isaac and Aaron Jernigan settled the area in 1843. The post office took the name Orlando in 1857, the town incorporated on July 31, 1875, and it became a city in 1885. Citrus drove the early economy until the freeze of 1894-95, and Walt Disney World's opening in October 1971 set off decades of growth. Orlando mixes young professionals in downtown condos, families in lakeside bungalows and newer master-planned homes, and a big hospitality and health care workforce. Weekends mean the Sunday farmers market at Lake Eola, brewery patios and neighborhood festivals.

Buying in Orlando: what Ryan and Megan check

  • Confirm whether the address is inside Orlando city limits or unincorporated Orange County (Dr. Phillips is unincorporated). Taxes, permits and services differ.
  • In Orlando's historic districts, exterior changes need a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Board. Check before planning renovations.
  • Orlando is a city of lakes. Look up the flood zone on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and get a flood insurance quote early, especially for lakefront homes.
  • In newer master-planned areas like Lake Nona, check the tax bill for CDD assessments and HOA dues before you set a budget.
