Lake Wales is a small city in the center of the Florida peninsula, positioned about thirty miles east of Lakeland and fifty miles south of Orlando. The community is perhaps best known for the historic Bok Tower Gardens, a lush public botanical garden surrounding a beautiful 1920s mansion and anchored by the ethereal Singing Tower.
Highway 27 serves as the main commercial corridor through Lake Wales, with several small shopping centers clustered along this route including the popular Eagle Ridge Mall near the north side of town. Rental rates in town tend to be quite affordable, with a diverse selection of apartments, condos, and single-family homes available throughout the city and in the surrounding area.

GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
