I was born and raised in Clermont, moved away to the west coast after high school, moved back after a divorce and let me just say this...it's not the same town...overcrowded, overpriced, all of the hills have been leveled, or a house has been planted on top of them....TOO,TOO much traffic...must I go on?? The High school is WAY over crowded if you have teenagers, along with a facility that doesn't care about the kids(East Ridge High School) not so sure about South Lake High....I'm moving in 7 months just as soon as I finish RN program....the smart choice in the aponion of a native would be Mount Dora...It still has a small town feel to it and has access to Orlando just as Clermont does...also a better place to raise kids...Thank GOD I only have one child and don't have to worry about the school system after next year...GOOD LUCK
Definitely Mt. Dora! I live in Eustis (next town over) and I love it! Florida Hospital Waterman is just down the street, and Leesburg Regional Medical Center is in Leesburg, about 20 minutes away. If you're up for a commute Orlando is about 45 minutes - 1 hr drive. PM me if you want any more information...
