When moving to a new city, it’s important to find the neighborhood that best suits you and your family’s needs. For some, it’s all about location, location, location. For others, it’s about finding a property that is surrounded by nature and tranquility.

As you may know, Lakeland has a variety of beautiful, charming neighborhoods to fit everyone’s taste. Swan City continues to grow quickly, so it helps to know what kind of area best fits your needs. That’s why we created the New to Lakeland neighborhood quiz to help you pick the spot that’s perfect for you.

How it works

This quiz will ask you 13 simple questions about your ideal neighborhood preferences. You’ll be able to choose one answer from a selection of options, and the result will sum up your general preferences, tastes, hopes, and dreams.
