The thriving downtown area is home to numerous local eateries and shops that prove that small town America is alive and well. The Saturday farmer’s market will keep you coming back for more locally produced goods and will help you meet your neighbors in now time at all. 

Weather

While all of the communities in Central Florida benefit from the same weather, it is a major selling point of the area. Lots of people from up north move to Winter Garden to escape the freezing winters. Some have two homes so they can enjoy the warmer winters and still go back north to avoid the hot and humid summers. Although there can be hot and humid summers here, afternoon showers tend to cool things down. All in all the weather is pretty nice all year round. 

Education

Schools are definitely a big factor when checking out your next neighborhood. For new residents with children it is exciting to hear that many of Winter Garden’s public schools have received awards and are A-rated. Looking for an alternative to the public school setting? Innovation Montessori is a quickly expanding public charter school in Winter Garden, and families also love Hope Charter and Legacy High School.

Nature

The West Orange Trail is a 22-mile paved pathway perfect for walking, running, and biking that starts at Killarney Station in Winter Garden and ends at Rock Springs Road in Apopka. For many Winter Garden residents, it’s a must to live close to the trail. While locals head to the trail when they want to be active, it’s also an ideal spot to sit still and relax. Bird watchers, photographers, and other nature lovers find the trail to be a calming and quiet place to enjoy Winter Garden’s natural beauty.
