What Horizon West is
Horizon West is a large planned area in unincorporated west Orange County. It grew under an Orange County plan that organizes it into villages, each with its own neighborhoods, plus a town center at Hamlin. Most homes have Winter Garden or Windermere mailing addresses.
Much of the housing is new or recent construction, and many neighborhoods carry both an HOA and a CDD. Builder communities can have different rules from resale neighborhoods next door, so we check each home on its own.
