Hi,

I will be moving up from South FL next year and plan on opening a retail business selling athletic goods. I am looking for a good place near Orlando and Disney. Then I would also like it to be closer to Clermont. Need a high traffic area in a decent neighborhood....but would like to live within 30 minutes in a place with less people and traffic. Any suggestions?????? I want to stay somewhere on the west side of Orlando. Grateful for any advice. Thanks

The "west" side of Orlando spans a huge area. There is the West Oaks mall off of HY50 out toward Winter Garden. Also large retail stores like target, Home Depot, Lowes, etc. For high traffic retail, I'd look in that area. As to where to live, you have many places out there to choose from. Affordable housing, all the way up to houses in the multi-millions.

Why not try to get in with the growth of Clermont? Lots of new businesses and definitely traffic on SR 50 and US 27. There are young families & students in the area as well as retirees but still a small town. Also Triathlons have been held here for several years -- wish I could give you more info on that but you could do a search and find that I'm sure. Lots of bicycling here and the bike/walking trail that runs into Winter Garden and from there to the Apopka area. Take a little trip and check it out. Hey, there's even a surf shop that opened here, so if they can make in the middle of the state, seems that regular athletic goods should do well!

Thanks, sounds like good advice. Especially since you know about the triathlons there. That's what I needed to hear. I will look at that area.
