User-submitted facts and corrections:

  • Heart of Florida Hospital is listed in Davenport Florida which is incorrect. If you look at the boundries it is actually located in Haines City Florida. Just North of the hospital is a city sign indicating that Haines City starts before the hospital. I believe in actually starts at Development Road another 1/2 mile to a mile further north.
