It is a Polk County city with Lakeland as its neighbor to the west, about 47 miles southwest of Orlando and about 51 miles east of Tampa. US 17 runs north to Lake Alfred and south to Bartow, US 27 passes east of town, and Cypress Gardens Boulevard (SR 540) crosses the southern side toward Lakeland. Central Avenue cuts through downtown toward Dundee, Havendale Boulevard links Auburndale and Haines City, and 1st Street anchors the downtown grid.
