Central Florida
Living in Lake Nona
Lake Nona is a master-planned district in southeast Orlando built around Medical City, a cluster of hospitals, research institutes, and the UCF College of Medicine. Smart-home infrastructure, an unusual density of parks and trails, and constant community programming give it a feel closer to a new-built college town than a suburb.
