Citrus groves in “City with Natural Charm”
Florida and citrus go hand in hand, a connection on full display in Groveland, the small city about 30 miles west of Orlando. The verdant landscape pairs with placid lakes and marshland, prompting locals to call it the “City with Natural Charm.” “The commute is beautiful because of all the citrus groves,” says Jarred Denison, owner of POP Realty. “We’re at one of the highest elevation points in the state, so when you’re driving around, it feels less like Florida and more like Northern Georgia.” And oranges aren’t the only thing growing: New business development is driving more buyers to the area. In 2020, the population was around 18,000. As of 2023, it's closer to 23,000.
Groveland's night sky is a rather famous one, being designated as a "Dark Sky" community.

Well-maintained older builds and new construction sell for around $375,000 to $500,000, and lakefront estates with sizable acreage fetch prices from $1 to $2 million.

A certified DarkSky community
“Groveland is largely focused on eco-friendliness and sustainability,” Denison says. In 2023, the city became the first in Florida to be named a certified international DarkSky Community, part of an initiative to reduce light pollution. Responsible outdoor lighting is mandatory for all residences and businesses. February’s Star Party emphasizes the initiative with an evening of stargazing, craft and learning stations, live music and food trucks.

Locally owned businesses downtown
“Downtown is like a snapshot of the ’40s or ’50s, with brick buildings and family-oriented mom-and-pop stores,” Denison says. “But I’d say it’s positioned to boom in the future.” Small supermarkets and butcher shops sit alongside Mexican restaurants, tea shops and ice cream stores. Chain restaurants and shopping centers are located along State Road 50 toward Clermont.

Hurricane risk and crime stats
Hurricane warnings are standard in Florida, and homeowners should ensure their insurance covers wind and flood damage. Recent drought conditions and windy weather have increased the wildfire risk in the region. Winters are mild, but summers are muggy and hot, with average daily high temperatures in the 90s. No recent crime statistics are available for the city, but FBI data showed a slight uptick in violent crime from 2019 to 2020, while property crime decreased during the same period. Overall rates were on par with state and national figures.
