Churches in Horizon West, FL

 In Articles, Commentary

Horizon West isn’t its own city—it’s an unincorporated region of Orange County that is part of the broader Winter Garden area. But, honestly, Horizon West  has morphed into being its own thing, and it’s awesome! And the “downtown” area, known as Hamlin, has become a go-to spot for shopping and dining.

The Horizon West/Hamlin region has been the fastest growing area within the Orlando metro since 2019. The area has grown from less than 1,000 people to 65,000+ people over the last 20 years.
