Happy that you are showing some of the older parts of town..I lived in collage park for years and it’s a great part of town. Like living in a small town in the middle of a city. Orlando is developing in a fantastic way!
The city is nearly unliveable.....the traffic is worse than south Fla, with I-4 under continual construction....and entire neighborhoods being levelled for new interchanges and expansion....anything affordable is gone because the city sold out to developers who only build for the well-to-do and rich....try finding affordable houses and rentals now....extremely rare.
A little scary.... would like to keep some of our land open. And not have all of the roads packed. The roads through those areas arent really made for so much. Too crowded. Also don't want to lose all of our trees and wild life. Tough situation.
We were are about to buy a home at 3311 azolla st orlando. It was told to us that all of this will become an up and coming area because of the packing district is this true??
Ken I love my City but boy do I hate Narcoosee from 417 to 192. City has to figure out a way to limit the congestion by the 3 schools that get out back to back to back. If SunBridge is going to be the next Lake Nona they had better make another entrance (not sure where ) other than the one off Narcoossee. City is growing faster then the infrastructure. I’ve loved out their way for 9 years and I’m seriously considering my where I will be moving next On this video I grew up near hour glass district and remember washing my first car at the car wash in the corner of bumby…. Good memories.
@@kenpozek Just wondering do you work for the City? I work for the city however currently over seeing a project in Fort Christmas at the Orlando Wetlands Park so I am missing all the updates since I dont stop in at city hall anymore.
I used to come to Orlando from Miami A LOT and really liked it. Never imagined I'd choose it to move to after retirement but figured it'd be more economical and family friendly. BOY was I WRONG! If I would've known last year what I know now, I would've never moved here. I'm all for updating what's already there. But there should really be a law against how much these corporations have been ravaging the natural land. It's SO sad. I actually moved with the intent of buying a new build bc my contamination OCD makes it really hard for me to buy a "used" house. But after seeing the magnitude of the destruction of the beautiful landscape and ecosystem here, I've opted to buy an older home and just renovate it. IF I ever get over paying these RIDICULOUSLY inflated prices to live in Orlando! Who would've thought 🙄
When I moved to Orlando in 1979, between Orlando and Disney were orange groves....now it is all asphalt....that isn't progress, it's a denigration of the land . The workers of the theme parks can no longer afford to live near where they work.
Do you know some cheap really cheap land for sale in the northern part of mid-northern part of Florida where I can get 50 acres or more for Mega cheap to use as a multi-use any ideas where to start looking
No! This is what is destroying Orlando....turning it into Miami isn't a positive! All these "options" aren't designed for those who work in the service industry, that has fueled the overblown and destructive explosion of high end rental and housing in Orlando. How can you say this is good, when the majority of the workers will soon not be able to live in the area??? I'm sure the conservatives will lament the "laziness" of the workers, and NOT the greediness of the major employers who fail to pay a wage for their workers to be able to live anywhere near their jobs. I moved away from Orlando 10 yrs ago and haven't regretted it, other than being further away from my daughter and granddaughter......I originally moved to Orlando in 1979...and it was an affordable area....now it is trying to rival Miami as an unaffordable middle class area and become a bastion of the rich. This is NOT to be celebrated, but mourned....as Orlando becomes a place the workers who provide the wealth for corporate CEOS can no longer afford to live in. SHAME!!!!

When they going to fix and bring back Pinehills?
This is really Heart breaking , developers have taking over . Jim Philips from 104.1 real radio he was right !
The college park sign right under the 7/11 sign is kinda an eyesore. But loving dev of Orlando
Thanks for making a packing district video!
They call it the packing district because they are packing them into mid-rise boxes.
You should do one off east Orlando like Oviedo being top 25 city to live in
I work in winter springs....Oviedo wouldn't reach top 10000 imo

Love the 32804!
I lived in Orlando for ten years. I now live in Miami. It’s hard to believe whats going on in Orlando since I left in ‘05
Would love to hear your take if you drive through again!
From someone that lived all over South Florida for over 20 years....why would u ever leave here for that s$/&hole?
Ken you always bring the 🔥
Thanks Winston!
No, don't move here.... Stop building in the wetlands and destroying Florida's ecosystem
Can you show us some other pockets of the city of Orlando that are affordable and safe? Maybe some condos?
your agent Joseph Shivley sold me my home. he's a great guy and did a good job.
He’s amazing! So glad we could help!
More great development! Love to see it!
I love this!! I love seeing the city grow and change while holding on to historic roots. 💕✨
Same!

Thanks a ton.
You got it!
That was a great video! I loved seeing the older areas. The info on College Park was good to know! I wondered about that one!
Nice, great video. Glad they're bringing more to Downtown
We were are about to buy a home at 3311 azolla st orlando. It was told to us that all of this will become an up and coming area because of the packing district is this true??
I just want to make sure we’re not making any mistakes
Looks and sounds nice. But being a local, not all that exciting.

Oh for sure. New off ramp coming by 2023. Should make the drive a little easier. They need to widen those roads asap
@@kenpozek off ramp???? On the west side of Narcoossee 417. I was also hoping some sort of connection from move road
Another one to the east actually! So it’ll take you from 417 almost straight to bogey creek and Narcoossee
@@kenpozek Just wondering do you work for the City? I work for the city however currently over seeing a project in Fort Christmas at the Orlando Wetlands Park so I am missing all the updates since I dont stop in at city hall anymore.
Hello Ken! Can talk about “Turo” I feel a lot of proton Orlando doesn’t know about it. Is better than car rentals👍🏽
Orlando is lookin kinda hot 🥵 ngl I wanna move there from east Tampa bay
It’s a great spot!
Good Morning from Miami Mr. Ken ☕️☕️☕️

@@BrownsBacker that's so sad. I heard that there was a time when you'd drive to Clermont and the air smelled like oranges. That must've been nice!
Ken did you see the new Foxtail going in at downtown Winter Garden? Looks sick! Buuut, Coffee Shop of Horrors is still the best!
I did! Kelly’s ice cream inside too! Need to check out Coffee shop of horrors asap
I've heard rumors that they're looking to devlop a 7 story apartment building right behind the Hourglass Brewery. Do you have any information on this?
Supposed to be right across from foxtail. They have all of the billboards up for it
And they will all rent for over $2000 a month.... Orlando is no longer affordable.
Do you know some cheap really cheap land for sale in the northern part of mid-northern part of Florida where I can get 50 acres or more for Mega cheap to use as a multi-use any ideas where to start looking
Bithlo or Christmas florida

I’ve never seen more mosquitos at dusk then in Orlando. Disgusting.
Wait. Wait. How did you know we were cool? 😬🤓😎
Who’s cool?
