Howey-in-the-Hills, FL

Howey-in-the-Hills is the smallest place in this service area, and we want to be upfront about that: with 1,643 residents at the 2020 Census, there isn't the volume of population or public data that a page like our Groveland or Minneola one can draw on. What research does confirm is a distinct character — a lakefront village on Little Lake Harris, founded as an agricultural settlement, still carrying Spanish Revival architecture from the 1920s alongside golf-course homes and newer acreage parcels.

What's actually there

Historic lakefront core

Little Lake Harris frontage means boat storage and boat pad questions come up naturally here — see RV & Boat Pads for the difference between a rolling-load RV pad and a boat/trailer pad.

Golf-course and acreage homes

Mixed lot types — from historic in-town parcels to larger acreage near the golf course — mean project scope varies a lot house to house. Concrete Driveways covers both a short in-town approach and a longer rural one.

Rolling terrain

"Hills" isn't just the name — sloped lots are common enough here that drainage and retaining are worth planning for early. See Retaining Walls.

Honest Note

Why this page is shorter than our other city pages

Howey-in-the-Hills simply doesn't have the population, development pipeline, or published local market data that Groveland, Mascotte, or Minneola do — and we'd rather say that plainly than pad this page with generic filler. The one concrete signal worth tracking is the planned 560-home active-adult community announced in 2025, which points to real future demand even if it isn't reflected in the town's current size.

FAQ

Howey-in-the-Hills concrete questions

How big is Howey-in-the-Hills, really?

Small. The 2020 Census counted 1,643 residents, and even the higher third-party estimates only put it around 1,700–2,150. It's a village, not a suburb — which is exactly why there's very little dedicated concrete-contractor content specific to it. We're not aware of any confirmed, dedicated competitor content for Howey-in-the-Hills at the time of writing, so treat this page as a starting point, not a competitive landscape.

Is there new construction coming to Howey-in-the-Hills?

Yes — a 220-acre site was acquired in 2025 for a planned 560-home active-adult (55+) community, a significant project relative to the town's current size. That's a real, if forward-looking, source of demand for new driveways, walkways, and patios in the next few years.
