Family-friendly town just east of The Villages

The central Florida town of Lady Lake sits on the east side of the Villages, a 55-plus master-planned community known for its extensive amenities. The community of 16,000 benefits from the location, which allows residents to take advantage of the restaurants and entertainment options in the Villages with a lower price tag. “You can get a home in Lady Lake for about $100,000 less than in the Villages,” says Liliana Whittington, a local real estate broker with eXp Realty specializing in the Villages and surrounding areas. “And you get more land for your money, too.”

Though the town is popular with retirees, the southeast half of Lady Lake is open to residents of all ages. Lady Lake has the second-lowest tax rate of any of the towns in Lake County, and its population has grown about 14% from 2010 to 2020.

Fifty-five-plus communities in the north, all-ages neighborhoods in the south

Most of the town’s homes are in 55-plus communities on the northwest corner, overlapping with The Villages. Bungalows and ranch-style homes from the 1980s and 1990s are common in these communities, many of which sit on the Orange Blossom Hills Golf Course. The rest of the town offers midcentury ranch-style and 21st-century New Traditional-style homes. Though Lady Lake overlaps with the Villages, homes here are less expensive, with properties selling for a median price of about $310,000. In comparison, homes in the Villages sell for a median price of $375,000. Condos are available on the town’s west side, averaging around $400,000 for a two-bedroom unit.

Shopping, dining and entertainment at Spanish Springs Town Square

Residents enjoy the same shopping and entertainment options residents of The Villages enjoy. "The Villages has three different entertainment centers," Whittington says. "Spanish Springs Town Center is the main one, right next to Lady Lake." Spanish Springs features clothing stores like Talbots and Chico's and restaurants serving seafood and American fare. It’s also home to the Sharon L. Morse Performing Arts Center, which hosts concerts, comedy shows and other live entertainment. National retailers, restaurants and services are located along U.S. Route 441.

The town offers many annual events

Annual events include Blues Under the Oaks, a free concert at Snooky Park complete with food trucks; The Big Bang, which celebrates the Fourth of July with fireworks, a watermelon eating contest and a dunk tank; and Light Up Lady Lake, which rings in the Christmas season at Veterans Park with pictures with Santa, bounce houses and thousands of lights.

Lady Lake rates a B from Niche on crime, the town is susceptible to hurricanes

Niche rates Lady Lake a B in crime and safety. In January 2024, the police department purchased new body cameras, with plans to introduce dashboard cameras in the spring as a further commitment to transparency.

As with most parts of Florida, Lady Lake is susceptible to hurricanes. The town urges residents to gather supplies and plan a potential evacuation route before “hurricane season,” from June to November.
