And the traffic? :I

(Actually, parts of Orlando are quite doable...just depends on where you are.)

My parents had a house in Altamonte Springs and the traffic was always bad. Every time I drive there to check on it whether from Boca Raton or from up here , the traffic is terrible. However, my parents loved it. As I have stated, no perfect place.

After DC, traffic in Orlando is a snap--we'd live outside -- perhaps north--but for now, that's my leading candidate. I don't mind traffic if I have amenities to go with it.
