Clermont was founded in 1884 and incorporated in 1916. The city is located in south Lake County in suburban south central Florida, about 22 miles (35 km) west of the city of Orlando and 22 miles (35 km) southeast of the city of Leesburg. For a log time Clermont had a thriving Citrus industry. When some hard freezes destroyed crops and plants in the late 80’s more and more citrus groves were abandoned or converted into pine forests for timber production.

 

Clermont's population soared in the early to mid 2000s as orange groves were converted into subdivisions. Clermont has also experienced economic growth, attracting retail stores like Wal-Mart, Super Target, BJ's Wholesale, K-Mart and Kohl's as well as many smaller establishments.

 

Clermonts rolling hills and the many lakes and scenic routes provide a landscape rather uncommon in the mostly very flat Florida. Bicyclists welcome the partly steep hills for their training sessions. Today there is a large inventory of newer single family homes available. Some communities off State Road 27 on the south side of Clermont bordering Polk and Orange  and Osceola County are zoned for short term Rental.

 

Clermonts Chain of Lakes is one of the largest in the Region with pristine Lakes like Lake Luisa, Lake Minehaha and Lake Mineola.
