Hi Stephan... I would say YES! I am a 5th generation Central Floridian and love the area. The Greater Orlando area has many "bedroom communities" that differ widely. It really depends on WHAT you are looking for in a community. We have Urban, Suburban, Multi family areas. There's more tha likely a part of Central Florida that you would love to call home. Give me a call. I can give you the pros and cons of different parts of town and what offerings would be found where. Trust a native! See my website at http://www.cflmove.com for more info on communites. I can be reached at 321.228.8100 or emailed at bdecosmo@cflmove.com. Thanks!

Orlando is an outstanding area for families. There are a number of places that have great parks and kids playgrounds nearby. The schools are okay, it all depends on where you live.

Local entertainment, sports teams and amusement parks are always open and available too, so no lack of things to do.

FIRST ANSWER

Orlando is a wonderful city for families. It is known for its scenic lakes and parks, which makes it very desirable for outdoor activities and exploration. It also has a wonderful science museum which caters to children. The lovely weather in our area also makes us a great destination and a family oriented community.
