Everything was in Orlando and it was all so far away, the area is also very rural and transient whereas Orlando is an established city

I say its a fact because most people would agree with me Orange County is better then teh 4 corners area. But in reality its just my opinion

Would it have made u feel better if I said opinion as compared to fact?
Are you really naive enough to think that all of Route 27 is contained within the four corners area?

Many people who live off of 27 would completely disagree that Orange County is better. You can keep your Pine Hills, Parramore, and Millennia areas, your congestion, corruption, and haters. The majority of the people that I know who live off of 27 do so not because they can't afford to live elsewhere, but rather because they enjoy the exurb lifestyle and beautiful rolling hills instead of flat SWAMPLAND.

And yes, opinions are just that--opinions. They are not "FACT."

By the way, there is plenty of real estate off route 27 that is neither rural nor transient. Out of 10 houses on my street, only two have changed ownership/residents in the past five years. Does that sounds "transient" to you?

Now I will say that I like the area of 27 near 50. I do like the beautiful rolling hills. It reminds me of my native Connecticut But that is not exclusive to Lake County. We have a lot of them in West Orange County. I live in southern Orange County where its mostly flat.

I have friends who live near Apopka and in particular on Beggs Road driving there is a real pleasure/ Its goes up and down and winds around bends, very nice and different for driving in Orange County. I have to drive though Pine Hills to get to their neighborhoods as well, Pine Hills lives up to the the "Hills" part of the name, it amkes driving through there a little better.

Many areas of Ocoee, Winter Garden, Windermere, Dr Phillips, and Apopka have beautiful rolling hills as well

Orange County is not all swampland

I'd still rather live in Orlando though. OPINION

You're joking, right? Rolling hills in Dr. Phillips and Windermere? Rises in elevation, maybe. But Rolling hills? Hardly.

it is your main objective to just rebuke everything I say isn't it?

Yes there are rolling hills in Windermere. Next time you take a drive up Apopka-Vineland Road near the Isleworth Publix you'll see what I'm talking about. There are rolling hills there between Sand Lake Road all the way up to Apopka believe it or not

They may not be as big as the rolling hills in Clermont because in Orange County is where the rolling hills start. The closer you get to Lake County, the bigger they are, my father used to work in Clermont BTW in like 1999

Im done on this thread as it as gotten off topic

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]I take offense to the person who said living in Cleveland is worse than Orlando. I grew up in Cleveland, lived in a suburb there for 30 years then lived in a Detroit suburb for 10 years before HAVING to move to Orlando for work. I used to fly to Orlando once a month for business (6 day stay) and then back to Detroit. My employer basically made me move to Orlando, and I did reluctantly. I have to say I absolutely despise it. Higher average crime than either of those "big" cities. Weather conditions are one thing (I have always disliked high humidity and the afternoon thunderstorms) but I can't stand the people and the high crime rate. There are so many people of unsavory character living in the area and many are immigrants who I would have to say are not here legally. Many people in that category are responsible for the high crime since many do not have jobs, only hopes of obtaining one, but still have an "entitlement attitude". I know I will receive criticism for that comment, but I have to live with this crap. If you park your base model 1993 Honda Civic at the mall chances are it will be stolen within 10 minutes after you are out of sight. Why you might ask? Because there are low life’s living in this city that feel they don't have to work hard for obtaining material possessions. Call it prejudice or "racism" that so many of you under educated idiots will declare, but the Orlando crime statistics speak for themselves. Secure the borders. Please![/SIZE][/FONT]

First of all Disney IS NOT ORLANDO. It is Lake Buena Vista. Disney is complete fiction to what life is like in a city. Separate the two! There are too many Disney freaks that live here expecting Orlando to be something it never will be. I moved to Orlando from Detroit and absolutely hate it! It is a death sentence. I will take snow and cloudy skies over this place in a heartbeat--don't care much for humidity and thunderstorms and the beach get old real quick. People here are scum and have such an "entitlement" attitude since most are illegals. Too many thugs!
