The closest, by far, is Lake Square Mall in Leesburg. Great for walking while avoiding the heat (it's really the only place for this that's nearby!); and for movies (AMC, with recliners and all the perks; get A-List and save a lot of $ if you love movies on the big screen, as we do). Some shopping - Belk dept store and other smaller apparel stores. Great entertainment venue with bowling, arcade, indoor gocarts, sports bar/cafe, etc.
New gamers' venue (near the Rainbow store). New contemporary furniture store. Books A Million. Pet supply store; pet boutique. Formalwear store. Small but good food court. Hair salon, nail salon, massage, brow salon; barber shop; shoe stores; jewelry kiosks; gift/decor store. Ichiban Asian buffet next door is very good. Lots of other restaurants nearby. We go there 1-3 times per week. There's also Paddock Mall in Ocala, and a very nice mall in Lakelsnd. Both are larger than the Leesburg mall, but a substantially farther drive.

Leesburg
Leesburg Mall is only good for their Bath and Body (we hit the seasonal sales for soaps) and Shoe Department stores.

I went to Paddock Mall this last spring and it was a pleasant experience. Though I did not get what I was mainly looking for at Lids - a very hard to find gator head foam hat - I ended up in the food court and ordered a poke bowl. They gave me so much food that I jokingly told others later that they were probably not wanting to put away all the food again! I couldn't even finish it and I usually finish the poke bowl at Brownwood. When I was leaving the mall a random 13-year old kid walks toward me as I headed toward the glass doors, smiles and says "I love your shirt!" I was wearing my favorite retro MTV custom made sleeveless and I smiled back and said thanks, though I was wondering how does this kid even relate or does he just like heavy metal. Anyway from my half hour visit it all seemed like a normal mall to me, minus the huge crowds. I used to hang around malls a lot in the 80s, but that's another story.

Altamonte Mall is a pleasant surprise
I was pleased to find an Apple Store closer to TV than Orlando and was pleasantly surprised to find it was located in the Altamonte Mall. Large bright and full of very nice stores. Lots of traffic both times I visited.

Online shopping is putting brick and mortar stores out of business. Surprised they are still around.
