Lake Placid Caladium Farms. (and yes they are just as expensive here as where you are)

The Caladium Capital of the World. The Town of Murals. Home of Toby’s Clown School.

These cute monikers all describe just one town —Highland County’s Lake Placid, just off of Route 27 and south of Sebring.

In 2013, Readers Digest Magazine named Lake Placid “America’s Most Interesting Town” because of the small town’s “unique variety of nature, culture, and fun,” according to the magazine.
