Baldwin Park is one of those rare Orlando neighborhoods where you can walk to dinner, jog around the lake, and be in downtown Orlando in 10 minutes. Built on the former Naval Training Center, it has a village center, lakefront paths, community pools, and a mix of single-family homes, townhomes, and condos. It's easily one of the most walkable communities in the entire metro.
I've helped plenty of buyers find their place here. Let me share what I know.
