Better yet would be 25 reasons why Orlando feels inferior to Tampa, as this article is the picture of inferiority complex.

Nope. It's congested, I-4 is the only way to get around, way too many tourists, and no beaches close by. Tampa is far better than Orlando but not better than Miami. IMO.

Orlando is pointless. It's like moving to Colorado and living in the eastern plains.

The sad part is that after all 25 reasons you are still in Orlando, the number 1 tripadvisor.com activity should be "leaving Orlando" which is in the fact the best thing to do while in Orlando.

I would rather be neutered than live in Orlando.

I like how the list had to borrow numerous items from the east coast.... space center, Daytona Beach (oh and btw, being allowed to drive onto the beach isn't a big plus), Port Canaveral, some nude beach on the Canaveral seashore. If you're going to puff your chest about Orlando, talk about..... Orlando. I guess they were having trouble scraping together 25 items.



And touting a soccer team? Really? LOL

Central FL is ok to visit, but I'd only live in Tampa Bay or South Florida.

I try not to be harsh about anyone else's favorite city, but as a Florida native I have NEVER liked anything about Orlando.

To me, the expanded Tampa Bay area is the best region of Florida, for way too many reasons for me to list.
