WOW, they really did a good job of hiding what the MAJORITY of Sanford really is. What they showed on the video is not 'SANFORD'.....it's 'DOWNTOWN SANFORD', the majority of what's along the south side of Lake Monroe. Downtown is really tiny compared to the size of the whole City! What they carefully put in that video is akin to taking a really big run-down house with broken floorboards, molded walls, windows broken into from burglaries...... and then revamping just the FOYER with hardwood floors, antiques, upscale furnishings, and showing only THAT to people when they come knocking on the door! I can walk to that lake in 2 minutes from where I live, as can thousands of others, but they don't put THAT scenery in the promo video, which I'm sure is designed to show investors and upscale residents what life could be like when you walk outside during daylight and walk within crowds during a festival LOL. They should look at the crime maps provided by the Seminole County Sheriff website, and see exactly what goes on below and to the east and west of those two three-mile festival streets at all hours of the day.
