Altamonte Springs is a walkable, lakeside Orlando suburb with a lively town center built around parks, a scenic boardwalk amphitheater and a strong mix of restaurants, cafes and breweries—ideal for multi-week assignments when you want evenings out, green space and regular local events rather than being stuck somewhere dead.
You’re also a short drive from Orlando’s major dining, cultural and entertainment options and about 45 minutes from Daytona Beach for quick weekend ocean escapes, so it’s easy to keep your free time interesting.
