Dunbar is a storied neighborhood just east of Fort Myers, where deep-rooted heritage meets everyday convenience. Along Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, community pride shows up in colorful murals, music-filled festivals, and neighbors who know each other by name—especially around Downtown and nearby Edison Park, with quick connections to Cape Coral and the rest of Lee County.
Weekends often center on Roberto Clemente Park, home to the Williams Academy Black History Museum, curated by the Lee County Black History Society. Families gravitate to the city’s STARS Complex for youth sports, aquatics, and after-school programs, while curious minds can explore hands-on exhibits at the nearby IMAG History & Science Center. Annual events from the Dunbar Festival Committee keep the calendar lively with parades, cultural showcases, and community gatherings.
Education is a standout. Dunbar High School has earned a reputation for cutting-edge programs in STEM, cyber security, and digital design. Younger students benefit from supportive campuses like Franklin Park Elementary, and adults advance careers at Dunbar Community School, a long-running hub for adult education and workforce training.
Housing ranges from classic midcentury homes to new infill builds, with easy transit via LeeTran and quick access to job centers, waterfronts, and colleges.
