The history of Apopka, and the real estate that makes up this Orlando area community, neatly marks its transition from Indian lodging grounds to the indoor foliage capital of the world to a city best known for its prime real estate and exclusive addresses. A full century and a half ago what is know one of the hottest real estate markets in Central Florida and neighboring Orlando was first christened “Apopka” -- a name which roughly translates to “Big Potato.”

Real estate developers have created neighborhoods and individual residences that bespeak style and elegance across the board.

Truly, people are moving to Apopka at a faster rate than in any other Orlando area community in search of their very own dream homes.
