What can anybody tell me about the northern most area of Kissimmee just south of the Osceola Pkwy? Between Boggy Creek and Buenaventura?

Thanks!

The only Yee Haw Junction I have ever heard of is South...... down where RT 60 and the Fl Turnpike meet West of Vero Beach. It's just a little bitty town.

I'm assuming you're referring to Buenaventura Lakes? According to City-data, it's called Yeehaw Junction for some odd reason. Yeehaw Junction is some irrelevant town in Osceola County. OTOH, BVL is a working-class/lower middle-class area. It's also predominantly Hispanic (as is a lot of Osceola County and South Orlando). The last time I drove around that area, it seemed pretty run-down in most parts. But I think they are doing some new construction closer to Boggy Creek leading to the airport? Anyways, I think there are much better areas, especially outside of Osceola County.

I grew up about 40 miles from Yeehaw Junction (it's called that because that's it's name). Buenaventura is a new name. It's quiet and there's good hunting just west of there (River Ranch and surrounding areas). It's just a little spot in the road. (Idk if it's still there, but the big thing was: if you went into the restroom alone, you got freaked out because when you close the door, a mannequin pops out at you. (That was years ago, idk if it's still there, but not much changes in Yeehaw)

Well, the area has a straight shot to Disney World and it also has easy access to the Florida Turnpike (which can be good and/or bad). It's pretty much an inexpensive area that services a lot of workers that need access to the tourist areas and airport.
