From Wikipedia:
Oviedo (/ˌoʊˈviːdoʊ/ oh-VEE-doh) is a city in Seminole County, Florida, United States. As of the 2010 United States Census, the population was 33,342, representing an increase of 7,026 (26.7%) from the 26,316 counted in the 2000 Census. It is part of the Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford Metropolitan Statistical Area. Oviedo is known for its historic houses and buildings, as well as its population of chickens that roam the downtown area. Although the city has historically been rural, in recent years it has had an influx of new developments to support its rapid growth, due to its proximity to the University of Central Florida and the Central Florida Research Park. Several national publications have placed Oviedo on their nationally ranked lists as one of the best places to live in the US.
In the late 1870s, individuals living a few miles south of Lake Jesup needed an easily accessible post office in the Florida back country. Andrew Aulin, an early settler and shop-owner, decided to file paperwork for a post office, and in his first site location report, needed a name that was different from any other post office in Florida. Aulin liked having a Spanish name, "to honor the Spanish heritage of the state," and decided to name his post office location "Oviedo" after the city of Oviedo in northern Spain (the capital city of the Principality of Asturias) and the University of Oviedo. Some say he visited the university, while others say he just liked the sound of it, but most agree that he likely pronounced the name correctly oh-vee-AY-doh rather than the Americanized way of oh-VEE-doh. A recent campaign advocates for honoring Aulin's original concept for the town's moniker by returning to the correct Spanish pronunciation oh-vee-AY-doh).
Most of the buildings in the downtown historic area were constructed between the end of the 19th and early 20th century. The Nelson and Company Historic District, the R.W. Estes Celery Company Precooler Historic District, the First Methodist Church of Oviedo, and several houses in Oviedo are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The nearby Oviedo Mall features murals of historic areas along with pictures of early European and African-American settlers in the area.
State Road 434, which cuts through downtown Oviedo, is currently being widened and several buildings have been demolished. The Oviedo Preservation Project has been tasked with photographing and documenting the buildings for posterity.
An African-American Oviedo pioneer named Mathew Powell established the Antioch Missionary Baptist Church in April 1875.
Although not located in the downtown area, the historic Lake Charm settlement is nearby. This settlement, established by Henry Foster in the 1860s, became one of the first resorts in Florida. It lasted as a resort until the 1890s. Several winter homes built during that era still stand today.

i used to live in oviedo for many many years, i love this placw
Just wanted to say these are so helpful since we are moving to Florida
Good to hear it. Florida has a lot of nice places to choose from.
Have U Guy’s Moved To Florida Yet
My Memorial Day morning drive. Thx for the video!!! From jax FL
👌
I left the area in 1982 and the only thing I recognize is the huge Baptist Church downtown. Ugh, I miss the good ole days. I went there a lot when I was going to FTU in 1970s. Whatever happened to the Citizens Bank of Oviedo???
Great video mike and happy Memorial Day to you!
Same to you
Mann! Welp this is after they tore down all the old "Downtown oviedo" vintage shops!
The karate places that had been there forever! And a few other stores!
My friend lived right on celery circle right in that area so I ALWAYS was going through there!
Mann.... what a LIFE TIME ago!💔💔💔
That’s a very nice town
Hi! Thank you so so so much for your videos. I'm trying to make the decision of moving to either Oviedo or to Ocala. My main concern was safety and cleanliness of the streets. I hear there are significantly more homeless people in Ocala. Since you have driven in both areas can you provide a little perspective? Thank you again!
Yeah Oviedo looked cleaner from what I saw. It's pretty suburban in character and looked very quiet. I'd also choose Oviedo due to the proximity to Orlando. Ocala is quite a hike to a major city and its amenities.
Oviedo is an overbuilt, badly planned nightmare. Apartments are taking over every open lot and traffic is worse than Atlanta. The apartments are bringing every manner of thug into town and instead of a quiet town you'll find unknowns wandering the neighborhoods at all hours of the night. realtors have created a false image of the area and their buddies developing the place are making a killing. But then my family has only barely been associated with the place since the 1800's, what would I know?
Great video Florida mike that looks like a nice quiet town happy memorial day to you what are you gonna do
Today is a good day to relax
That city got its name from oviedo, the capital of the spanish province of Asturias
Good to know.
Around 9:28 💔💔💔
The bowling alley right there! Mann... we blazed soooooo much motá in that parking lot! Chilling in cars. I remember landing a SIIIICCKK kickflip while skating n waiting for my friends to rollup! Get the "come on!" And did the trick! Landed but it slipped out! Went straight up n cracked my skull hard!!
Wasn't anything a lil puff couldn't fix!!
Also was in that parking lot waiting for 2 friends to meet me n my cuzzo to smoke!
It was on the day they announced Layne Staley (Alice in chains) singer had passed away. 4/20 I believe it was. Was soooooo heavy.
Clearly The Guy In Red Car In Front Of Mike Definitely Didn’t Feel Like Waiting Ao He Decided To Turn Around & Head Back The Other Way Instead
Hey mike do you have a video of the FL 589 freeway?
