Living in Orlando, Florida

There's a lot more to Orlando than theme parks.

For the people who call it home, Orlando can mean coffee along a neighborhood main street, an afternoon around one of the city's lakes, dinner in a favorite local district, a concert downtown, or simply finding a residential street that feels removed from the busier parts of the city.

And because Orlando is made up of so many distinct neighborhoods, districts, and nearby communities, living here can look completely different depending on where you choose to call home.

The Lifestyle

Orlando Beyond the Theme Parks

Walt Disney World and Universal may be what visitors associate with Orlando first, but everyday life here extends far beyond the tourism districts.

Spend an afternoon around Lake Eola, explore restaurants and locally owned businesses in one of Orlando's neighborhood districts, visit a museum or performing arts venue, catch a game or concert, or discover another part of the city you haven't explored yet.

That's one of Orlando's advantages as a place to live: there isn't only one way to experience it.

Orlando Neighborhoods & Districts to Explore

One of the most important things to understand about moving to Orlando is that there isn't just one version of the Orlando lifestyle.

Some buyers want neighborhood restaurants and easier access to Downtown. Others want more space, an established residential street, newer construction, or easier access to another part of Central Florida.

College Park

Established residential streets, lakes, parks, local businesses, and Edgewater Drive as a neighborhood commercial corridor.

Mills 50

Restaurants, local businesses, murals, and activity around Mills Avenue and Colonial Drive.

Thornton Park

Residential streets, restaurants, and local businesses beside Downtown Orlando and Lake Eola.

Ivanhoe Village

Lakes, residential areas, restaurants, shops, and local businesses immediately north of Downtown.

Audubon Park

Established streets near Leu Gardens, restaurants, local businesses, and East End Market.

Downtown Orlando

Condos, Lake Eola, offices, restaurants, entertainment, sports, and cultural destinations.

Real Estate

Homes & Real Estate in Orlando

Orlando's housing options are just as varied as its neighborhoods.

Depending on where you search, you may find established single-family homes, downtown condos, townhomes, pool homes, gated communities, lakefront properties, newer construction, and everything in between.

Instead of simply asking, “What's the best neighborhood in Orlando?” it can be more useful to ask, “Which part of Orlando fits the way I actually want to live?”

Education

Schools in Orlando

Much of Orlando is served by Orange County Public Schools, along with charter, private, magnet, and other education options.

School assignments should always be checked for the exact property address because boundaries can vary and may change.

Location

A Home Base for Central Florida

Orlando sits at the center of a much larger Central Florida region.

Major roads including I-4, SR 408, SR 417, and Florida's Turnpike connect different parts of the area with employment centers, Orlando International Airport, neighboring communities, and the tourism districts.

Where you live within Orlando can make a meaningful difference in your daily routine.

Which Part of Orlando Is Right for You?

That's usually a more useful question than simply asking whether Orlando is the right place to live.

Some buyers want an older home near one of Orlando's neighborhood districts. Others want newer construction, more outdoor space, easier road access, a pool, a townhome, or a different part of Central Florida.

The Miller Group can help you compare those options and narrow your search around the things that actually matter to you.
