Orlando was incorporated as a city in 1875 following a history as a military outpost during the Seminole Wars, later developing from a citrus capital into the theme park capital of the world. Culturally diverse and economically driven by tourism, aviation, and technology, the city hosts tens of millions of international visitors annually while maintaining a booming corporate workforce. The city’s crown jewel municipal attraction is Lake Eola Park, featuring its iconic fountain and swan boats right in the center of downtown. Logistically unmatched, the municipality centers directly around Orlando International Airport (MCO) and sits roughly 25 miles from Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB). It links straight to the Atlantic coast, with Cocoa Beach located 60 miles east via the Beachline Expressway. Popular things to do and local recreational activities include exploring world-class theme parks, attending professional basketball games at the Kia Center, kayaking urban lakes, and dining along the vibrant Mills 50 district.
