About Apopka
Apopka is a fast-growing city of roughly 60,000 in northwest Orange County, long known as the "Indoor Foliage Capital of the World" for its greenhouse and nursery industry. The city pairs rural lake country — Wekiwa Springs State Park and the Apopka Wildlife Drive — with big new subdivisions and an expanding downtown around Park Avenue. It draws buyers looking for larger lots and a slower pace still within commuting range of Orlando.
