Guide to Altamonte Springs

Altamonte Springs is a suburban city in Seminole County, Florida. Originally birthed from innovation, fiscal responsibility and progressive ideas, the city’s rich history dates as far back to the late 1800s, with the origin of its name Altamonte as a derivative of the Spanish language, meaning “high hill.” With a current population of approximately 43,000, Altamonte Springs provides its residents an urban suburban mix feel. Throughout the years, the city has made a concerted effort to remain debt free, while simultaneously maintaining one of the lowest tax rates across the state of Florida. The vision of this city is to ensure that Altamonte Springs is the top place in Central Florida to live, work, raise a family, build additional businesses and so much more.

Altamonte Springs also places an emphasis on proactive initiatives that ensures the success of current and future businesses, as well as environmentally friendly projects. The city has carved a niche for itself by going above and beyond set expectations and not allowing itself to fall within the limitations of local government. It continues to be the example that other cities strive to emulate.

Within Altamonte, a sense of community and activity is everywhere, leaving no one a stranger to its hospitality, be it resident or visitor. Trees line the streets and lovely, natural parks amplify the city’s charm as well as character. Altamonte Springs houses an extensive events program, hosting over 1 million visitors every year! The city offers so much to do for people across all ages. Some attractions include the Altamonte Springs shopping mall, two movie theatres, mini golf, shops, and restaurants galore! If your preference is to experience real Florida nature, head over to Lake Lotus Park where you can canoe, fish, paddleboard or simply hike the trails near the pristine water. Centrally located north of Orlando, many of the city’s residents either work in Downtown Orlando, or commute to Lake Mary.
