A little bit about Dundee, FL!

Dundee, Florida is a small town located in Polk County, in the central part of the state. Its history dates to the late 1800s when settlers began to arrive in the area, attracted by the fertile soil and abundance of water from nearby lakes and rivers.

The town was originally known as Paine’s Prairie, named after a local settler named William Paine who arrived in the area in 1877. The name was later changed to Dundee in honor of a Scottish town of the same name, as many of the early settlers were of Scottish descent.

In the early days of Dundee, citrus farming was the main industry. The town’s location near Lake Eloise and Lake Haines provided a reliable source of water for irrigation, and the warm climate was ideal for growing citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruits, and tangerines. By the early 1900s, Dundee had become one of the leading citrus-producing towns in the state.

In the 1920s, Dundee experienced a period of rapid growth and development as the state’s population boomed. Many new homes and businesses were built, and the town became a popular tourist destination. The arrival of the railroad in 1925 further spurred growth, as it provided a convenient way to transport goods and people in and out of the town.

Today, Dundee is a small but vibrant community with a rich history and a strong sense of community spirit. Its downtown area features several historic buildings and landmarks, including the Dundee Depot, which was built in 1925 and now serves as a museum and community center. The town’s economy is now based primarily on tourism, with many visitors coming to enjoy the area’s natural beauty and outdoor recreation opportunities.
