Clermont stands out from the rest of Central Florida for one simple reason: hills. The rolling terrain around the Clermont chain of lakes gives the area a feel you do not find anywhere else in the region. It is also where buyers get the most square footage for their dollar.
Builders like Lennar, Pulte, and DR Horton are active here with communities ranging from entry-level homes in the low $300Ks to premium estates overlooking the lakes. The commute to downtown Orlando runs 35-45 minutes via the Turnpike, which is the main trade-off for the lower price point.
