Where Davenport is
A Small City Inside a Big Mailing Area
Many homes with a Davenport address are not inside Davenport's city limits. The three Davenport ZIP codes, 33837, 33896 and 33897, held about 81,000 people in the 2020 Census, against about 9,000 in the city itself. Most of the rest is unincorporated Polk County, including much of the Four Corners area along US 27, where Lake, Orange, Osceola and Polk counties meet.
Some Davenport-address homes are in Osceola County, not Polk. ChampionsGate, a master-planned community at I-4 Exit 58, is in Osceola County. The county decides the property appraiser, the tax rate and the school district, so check it for every address you consider.
- City of Davenport: incorporated in 1915, with US 17/92 as its main north-south road.
- Four Corners: the unincorporated area along US 27 north of I-4, toward US 192.
- ChampionsGate: Osceola County, at I-4 Exit 58.
- Posner Park: the shopping center at I-4 and US 27, opened in 2008, with Target, Best Buy and other large stores.
What to check
Taxes, Vacation Rentals and Schools
| Location | Combined millage | Tax per $100,000 of taxable value |

The same price can carry a very different tax bill depending on which side of the city line a home sits. Homes on the Osceola side use Osceola County rates. A buyer's bill is also based on the new assessed value after the sale, as explained on the property tax guide, and a homestead owner can lower it with the homestead exemption.
Davenport is one of the busiest vacation-rental areas in Central Florida. Polk County's tourism office counts over 7,000 professionally managed vacation rentals in the county, most of them around Davenport and ChampionsGate. Resort communities in the area include Solterra Resort, Highlands Reserve, Regal Palms and Balmoral. Whether a home may be rented short-term depends on the community's rules and the local zoning, so read the HOA documents before you buy. Polk County charges a 5% tourist development tax on stays of six months or less, on top of state and county sales tax.
Public schools in the Polk County part of Davenport are run by Polk County Public Schools, which has an address lookup for school zones. Confirm the zoned schools with the district for each home you consider. Homes on the Osceola side are in a different school district.
