We are proud to serve more than 55,000 people who call this extraordinary place home. While exploring the City, you will find 50 lakes inside the City limits (many connected by navigable waterways locals call the "Chain of Lakes"), beautiful public spaces, great restaurants, and plenty to do with more than 150 annual special events. The pedestrian-friendly downtown hosts unique shops, one-of-a-kind restaurants, a tech-savvy public Library, a beautiful multi-block park system, and a healthy business district. We believe Winter Haven's unique quality of life provides our residents with numerous Exceptionally Local experiences and we invite everyone to see why.
We are energized by the many exciting projects and transformations happening today, and we are planning for our future as we continue to improve upon our unique and exceptional community. This includes innovative economic development and growth; serving as the home to the internationally known LEGOLAND Florida Resorts; partnerships and collaborations to constantly improve; an engaged and involved community; and improvements to public facilities and infrastructure.
