About Poinciana
Poinciana is a large planned community on the Orlando metro's southern edge, spanning the Osceola–Polk county line — the vast majority of homes and residents are on the Osceola side, with a portion of the community extending into Polk County. Developed in the 1970s as an affordable suburban retreat, it's now one of Central Florida's most value-priced communities, with townhomes and single-family homes around lakes and parks. Buyers come for the affordability, the community park system, and improving highway access via the Poinciana Parkway.
