Lakeland Florida

182qq Lakeland Florida

Centrally located between Tampa and Orlando makes Lakeland a viable location for living.  Easily assessable via I-4, Lakeland is a short commute in either direction. 

Lakeland was first settled in the 1870s, developed as the railroad reached the area in 1884, and was incorporated January 1, 1885. The town was founded by Abraham Munn (a resident of Louisville, Kentucky), who purchased 80 acres of land in what is now downtown Lakeland in 1882 and platted the land for the town in 1884.
