Neither Orlando nore Camden or any other blighted area scares me, but some of the housing in areas of orlando look like they were made out of card board and dont even have running water. Plus you can not deny the crime in Orlando, it is worse than Miami.
Where in Orlando are you speaking of? I find that very hard to believe about no h2o. Cardboard I do believe, though, especially in the area of Parramore.
^^^One thing I agree with you DailyJoornalist, is Orlando DOES have a high-crime rate, and it is downplayed because of the tourist Disney World presence in the metro. Orange County FL I believe had 122 homicides in 07. One of the highest number of murders for counties in Florida. And Pine Hills is a dangerous neighborhood. Lots of shootings and homicides in Pine Hills. So are Parramore, OBT, and McKlerin Cirlce in Kissimmee, ALL dangerous neighborhoods. So Credit to DailyJournalist.(For the 1st time).
BUT then again DJ, at the same time Miami-Dade County as a WHOLE is still alot more dangerous then Orlando. Miami-Dade has ALOT more dangerous areas within there county limits then Orange County does. Dade County still averages about 250-270 homicides a year. In Miami-Dade County you got Carol City, the Miami Gardens area, Opa-Locka, and these places I just named are the areas in the northern half of the county and NOT in the city limits. Liberty City, Overtown, Little Haiti,(these are city limit neighborhoods). PARTS of North Miami Beach, and lots of other notoriously dangerous areas.

Not exactly, Miami is a Metro area of over 5 million while Orlando has 2 million. Orlando is far more dangerous, just look at the FBI reports.
