Bought a house in 2003 in Highlands Reserve and used it as a holiday home for my family to come a visit 3/4 times every year from U.K. Sold the house in 2013 and recently just came to stay in the Davenport area. I have massive regrets selling the house. If I could I wish I could buy another one in the area. So many memories made with me and my family in Davenport and it will always be in my heart
15 minutes to Disney and 30 mintues to the airport if you are traveling at 3 in the morning. I moved to Davenport in 2016 and traffic wasn't that bad but now it's horrible. I absolutely love living here. Real estate prices are starting to drop so you can actually be able to find a 3bdr 2 bthrm close to Championsgate for 300k.
You can get those times at 2am too. The traffic has gotten bad. The resale homes have been becoming more affordable with the amount of new construction around. I appreciate you watching!
Your commute to Disney really depends on the section of Davenport you live in and the time of day. Ive been here a year and love it but everyone in the area says too much housing development and not enough roads. Davenport has so much potential and the location to Disney, Celebration, Clermont, etc is ideal. There is a reason why so much housing is coming up.
I agree. It has a TON of potential with the location. I believe that they will figure out the infrastructure to alleviate some of that traffic. A lot like we are seeing in Clermont/Horizon West. Thank you for watching
Yeah too many people and not enough roads is backing everything up. Davenport used to have barely any traffic and now everyone moving here it’s one of the worst traffic locations. You know you’re close to Davenport when the traffic gets worse 😂
Me and my family were coming back from Tampa and the GPS sent us through Champions Gate and we fell in love. We are lookin for houses in Florida and we were thinking about Lake Mary but we found the house we wanted in Davenport 70.000 cheaper than in Sanford ❤
Yes Champions Gate has a lot of what people would need in their day to day plus more. Davenport is becoming VERY popular for that exact reason. If there is a home you like, you can save more in Davenport. Send me an email or text cclayhomes@gmail.com (863)225-0060
I think Davenport has been built up now in a way where I can recommend someone living there because Posner+ Championsgate, etc has been built up in a way where there's a ton of shopping centers, schools, etc where you do not need to travel more than 20 miles to get everything you would need out of of living in that area. Now if you're someone that needs to travel to Orlando or even Lakeland, etc then yeah it's going to be long drives and a ton of traffic, but I think in defense to Davenport you can hop on I-4 and go pretty much straight to these locations. Comparing that with a city like Poinciana with less accommodations in terms of restaurants, shopping, healthcare, school choices, lanes to get around, etc I think Davenport gives you that advantage for similar money. .
I visit Davenport from Wisconsin every winter. Great location in regards to most things, but about airport traffic, can be heavy on the way there. I'd love to retire here. But RE prices are up right now.
Hello, love that it’s 15 min from Disney springs and Disney and we need Orlando for a Trader Joe’s where my husband works at. We are looking however not buying until end of 2023. We need at least 4 bedrooms 2 1:2 bathrooms and fence back yard for our 2 dogs. I would like my bedroom and office downstairs . Thanks and happy new year.
😂 He gives travel times without the traffic. What use to be 20/30 minutes now takes 1 to 2 hours. And it will just get worst with the building going on. Roads do not sustain the amount of growth in the housing industry. Water will become an issue very soon. Don’t fall for it.
There already is a water issue. Each city of Polk County is fighting over who is paying for a desalination plant. The cities that don't put in some money are not going to get to be part of it.
I couldn't agree more. If you work in Orlando like I do and have to be at work at 9:00 am on weekdays, then you'll probably need to leave home around 7:30 am or earlier depending on where you work in Orlando.
This is true. If you're going to Orlando during peak hours it will take an hour up and hour down. The good thing is that unlike a lot of polk you can take I-4 straight to Orlando if you wanted to and sometimes the congestion eases up unlike when you're on traditional roads.
@@Christianclay Thanks. This will be a holiday to chill and do little else. I've visited Orlando before and have already done the usual tourist stuff. I just need to find a Walmart to get some supplies and then head to my rental villa. Thanks again.
Got a wallet back from lost and found too bad the employees or customers took the money out , there goes honesty with people. Davenport, fl Cinepolis IMAX movie theater boo
I prefer Hallandale Beach Florida it’s more appealing beautiful beaches and restaurants growing businesses and communities, good nightlife and Pegasus statue is there it’s the second biggest Statue in America 🇺🇸.
@@Christianclay nah bro it takes 30 minutes to get off the exit of 27 and onto I-4. Granted that’s morning time but still 😂 what used to take 30 minutes of a drive is now about an hour and a half
@@Bigwes91 30 min? Wow I've never waiting that long to merge on I4. I Just typed in "Pozner Park to Disney" the GPS gave 15 min. You can ride with me next time :)
I gotta give you props Chris. I love your approach when making your videos. Definitely a fan keep up the good work 🦾🦾🦾🦾.
I appreciate the support Ashford! I will be sure to keep the content coming in!

It has grown so much. Do you still visit?

So, why did you bs us on the times? It says 30 minutes on the GPS to disney but people who live there say it takes 45 minutes!!

Not enough road as the housing supply triples. Not a single road gets another lane.
Great Video Chris. Clean, fun to watch. Keep doing your thing brother. All the best. 💯
I appreciate the love! Thanks for dropping in.
I stayed at an air bnb in Davenport for Disney. It's a nice quiet area
Home of the airBNB 💪🏽

Traffic can get pretty rough especially going to the airport. Maybe we will see you around one of these winters!

Polk City might be a good place to start selling or building houses. And it is also right off i4.
Polk City is another area that will start to see some opportunities in the near future.

I have to be sure to show the GPS to the camera next time. Stay tuned for our next episode and you will see how you’ve helped the show evolve 😁

I ordered a shirt from Amazon and it's coming from Davenport!
Greetings from California
💪🏽💪🏽
@@Discovery_and_Change I live across the street from the Amazon warehouse and get my orders sometimes in 2 hours .
@@anthonys9513 nice! 😄
Shout out from Cali
When is the driving tour sir ?

Great video. Visiting next week from London.
Thank you for watching! There is a lot to do in the Orlando area so you should enjoy yourself.
@@Christianclay Thanks. This will be a holiday to chill and do little else. I've visited Orlando before and have already done the usual tourist stuff. I just need to find a Walmart to get some supplies and then head to my rental villa. Thanks again.
@@VernalScott That is the kind of vacation we all need! Enjoy my friend
Love the videos keep them coming! do Disney next!
On it 🫡
I just bump into your video....what's the lowest cost for a home in Champion Gate Davenport?
We could get you into something JUST outside of the gates for around $375-$400
Inside of Champions gate $500k
Oh, you have to try Twistee Treat ice cream.

Davenport is cool, but it still comes off as having an "ideal for a good place to retire" vibe.
Definitely not in the mix of the hustle and bustle but not as far as some might think. Thanks for watching!
I love Davenport I use to work there on deen still road
It has been growing rapidly! Are you still in the area?
Sometimes I live in winter haven
@@aaronbagley5553 not far at all. We cover WH a lot on this channel
Where u get ur timeframes from bro? 😂
GPS Bro 😎
@@Christianclay nah bro it takes 30 minutes to get off the exit of 27 and onto I-4. Granted that’s morning time but still 😂 what used to take 30 minutes of a drive is now about an hour and a half

@@Christianclay time of year and time of day my man. I moved back to Florida in October and every day around 8am I-4 was still a parking lot 😂
@@Bigwes91 I know what you mean. Davenport is the entry way to I4 for everyone in Polk and Lake county.
It's in the middle of nowhere.
far far away 👻
15 minutes to Disney, yes!
Not too far right?
When all the schools are in session 15 minutes. Otherwise- May the Force Be with You!
