Orlando
Map
Strategically
positioned in the center of Florida, the city of Orlando
is the county seat of Orange County, Florida. As of
the 2000 census, the city population was 185,951 (metropolitan
area 1,644,561). A 2005 U.S. Census Estimates population
count gave the city population was 213,233 (metropolitan
area 1,933,255). It is the sixth-largest city in Florida,
and its largest inland city. It is also at the head
of the Orlando - Kissimmee, Florida, Metropolitan Statistical
Area. The Orlando - Kissimmee MSA is Florida's third-largest
metropolitan area, behind Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West
Palm Beach and Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater. Additionally,
Orlando is home to the second largest university in
Florida, the University of Central Florida.
The
region leads the way in terms of variables such as housing
starts; growth in population, employment and resident
income; mortgage lending; building permits; new-home
sales; and home prices. On the strength of those factors,
housing availability, affordability and diversity are
widely apparent. Homeowners save significantly by living
in Metro Orlando.
As
for diversity, Orlando real estate,
Orlando housing options and Orlando neighborhoods span
a broad spectrum, from an urban setting in downtown
Orlando Florida to the rolling hills of Lake County.
Houses in every description — from one-bedroom
condo units to multi-acre estates — are plentiful,
largely thanks to a new construction sector that is
one of the nation's most active.
