Boy am I glad that I live in Montana,ZERO rush hour,wide open spaces,super clean air,cheap rent(and I mean cheap,2 rooms apt for $525/month)no sales taxes,plenty of jobs,no crime where I live(I know Billings has crime though)I park my truck in downtown with windows down,never had a problem.
I live in Orlando. It sucks. Doesn’t even feel like Florida. No beaches or water. Homeless people all over. Crime. Traffic. Outside of the resort/theme park areas it’s dirty.
I’ve loved my time in Orlando however I underestimated the cost of living and I do love living near the Theme Parks but I missed the “Vacation” feeling of going to the parks and resorts.
I work a lot in the “Disney bubble” and it’s funny because I’ve heard that a lot and it’s something I now tell Disney fans to sorta expect, although it’s still crazy fun to have it in your backyard…it’s more casual once you live here.
Are you a native to the area out of curiosity? You and Ken Pozek really nail it with these Orlando videos! 💯 One more question, do you think Olympus Wellness Way in Clermont will end up being like a Horizon West/Lake Nona/Sunbridge type of area? Is that what they’re going for over there?
Thanks man 🙏 but no haha, I moved here late 2016 and loving it! To be honest that’s a really good question and the one thing I don’t have a clear answer on because so little of wellness way has been mapped out thus far. But based on what they have, I could see it having a lake Nona/Horizon West hybrid “vibe” with urban areas like Olympus with upscale amenities but with large subdivisions similar to Horizon West. In terms of sheer scale though, it’s up there with the names you mentioned.
You forgot to talk about HOA’s. I plan to move to Orlando in 2024 and I hear a lot of horror stories about HOA’s.... all the other stuff doesn’t bother me except maybe the alligators.
Fair point, HOA’s aren’t an “Orlando” thing though, and it’s very much case by case. Some are highly restrictive, others aren’t and you can usually tell by driving through the neighborhood 😅. Wouldn’t let that deter you from coming down 🙌
I live in the virgin islands so the weather and the bugs I am accustomed to but the alligators and snakes that's a different story. We have terrible traffic also.
I have a quite a bit of videos on Clermont! Feel free to search through the channel. More specifically on Olympus and Wellness way, one of my recent videos titled “ Inside a $14,995,000 golden oak mansion” has the most recent info on wellness way. Hope that helped!
I have; family out that way. Def not as bad if we compare peak hour to peak hour, 95 and 826 traffic is serious. Not to understate Orlando traffic though, but I feel you’d be able to manage I-4 compared to what you’re doing now.
Honesty don't know my friend. I really stick to the buying and selling arena; I've heard of plans to build affordable housing units in the future though.
Sorry…not used to the snake and wildlife loving nature in America, grew up a bit different. I know they were called garden snakes but at the time had no clue lol
In a time when the economy across the board in the whole US was at it's best early 90's. When most infrastructure was brand new and clean. Especially Fl, Orlando always sucked. I was living in South Fla at time near Stuart. And we got some some great radio stations from Orlando that I liked. WOMX Mix 105, 98.9 WMMO, WWLV Love 94.5 Daytona, Magic 107.7, Sunny 101.1 WSTF from Cocoa Bch/ Space Coast, All 5 because of the Cent Fla radio towers all being 100kw at at least 1600 ft boomed into Stu. And because its flat as a pancake except NW going toward Ocala. In Orl proper you got 4 more stations. You get Tampa at time W-101 WUSA, Mix 95.7 , NW you get 98.5KTK, and used to be Ocala's 93.7 WMMZ Z-93. Before they blew it up and changed to country in 1994. How do I know? I was supposed to be their evening jock. Until they fired everyone incl my future boss. All 9 of these stations were Adult Contemp and Hot Ac stations. Which was rare to have so many in any radio US market. Only SF, Pitt because they are both on hills, and Chicago had so many. So spent a week up there about 100 miles nw of me by Stuart. Check out the area see if I wanted to try it out. It was a huge disappointment. Outside the Orange Blossom Trail, which kind of reminded me of Dade- NW 2nd Av between Palmetto and Broward line back then. 167th St and 215. Poverty, and blight in Orlando never were camouflaged. It was the 1st Fl city that scared the hell out of me. Even Overtown Miami's worst hood was not as scary looking. Liberty City was only area that reminded me of Orlando. I don't know if Disney and industry that moved in since 90's has helped. Or made it worse. But you couldn't pay $1 mil to ever live in O. I could always say same about St Pete, Ft Myers, Sarasota, Ocala, Gainesville, Daytona, Titusville, Tally, and most of Jax as well. Though when in radio I survived 6 mos living off Dunn @95, not far from Jax Intl. Back then Tampa was not good, I heard its improved. West Palm was mostly hood, so was/is Ft L, Miami anything outside downtown was crap. Especially whole NW anything. But even NE was very seedy esp by Biscay, US 1 all the way up to NMB.

Sounds like your living the dream! As am I
Yeah and Life I too short to be living in a boring ass area
Love the saying the house of the mouse 😂. Great 😅info thanks . Moving next year maybe😊
I love how you worded yourself ! Thanks for enlightening us😊
Thank you!
Just noticed you crossed 1000 subs! Congrats bro. Well deserved
Thank you brother 🙏
Lol! I ain't scared! Great video!
Good! I’d be sad if you watched this and said “Nevermind” 😅
Immediately noticed you're at "The Wave"
Cool spot, my girl and I always go there and have drinks
Good eye! Love it out there 🙌
dont' kill harmless snakes man, they eat all the bugs and critters who are harmful
I live in Orlando. It sucks. Doesn’t even feel like Florida. No beaches or water. Homeless people all over. Crime. Traffic. Outside of the resort/theme park areas it’s dirty.
Lol you live in "Central" Florida and are complaining about no beaches?
Sorry you don't like it though, hopefully you find a city that you love ❤️
Hey, planning to move to Orlando next year, can you upload a video talking about the nightlife, restaurants, and things like that
I'll keep it in mind!
Great video!! Thanks a million!!
I rather listen to this guy. A man who grew up in Orlando as opposed to a person who moved there a few years ago.
Well somebody surely lied about the public transportation saying it was all over the city
The city yes (downtown Orlando) out on the suburbs like areas I cover on the channel, likely not.
I’ve loved my time in Orlando however I underestimated the cost of living and I do love living near the Theme Parks but I missed the “Vacation” feeling of going to the parks and resorts.
I work a lot in the “Disney bubble” and it’s funny because I’ve heard that a lot and it’s something I now tell Disney fans to sorta expect, although it’s still crazy fun to have it in your backyard…it’s more casual once you live here.
May I ask what was the average cost of living?
@@minigol91 I'm paying $2900 for a 3-bedroom townhome and my 2-bedroom apartment prior was $2400.

thanks for the video tips
greetings from your Indonesian friend...
always support and continue
Thank you too

2024 😂😂 why not sooner ?
What’s that
Be prepared for your lifestyle to decrease because cost of living is close to New York City now. I’m moving to Vegas, cheaper.
Be ready for traffick, high cost of living, Nd weired feeling of isolation here. No sense of belonging. Bunch of visitors and no rea life experiance.
I live in the virgin islands so the weather and the bugs I am accustomed to but the alligators and snakes that's a different story. We have terrible traffic also.
im moving to orlando florida in 2-3weeks guys should i try to convince my parents not too?
Do you have any videos on Olympus Wellness... Curious what that is going to be all about
Also any videos on Clermont?
I have a quite a bit of videos on Clermont! Feel free to search through the channel. More specifically on Olympus and Wellness way, one of my recent videos titled “ Inside a $14,995,000 golden oak mansion” has the most recent info on wellness way.
Hope that helped!
Speaking of snakes. Had one in my garage had to help one out of the garage the other day.
Yikes! Thankfully none of mine ever made it in the garage. It’s sometimes hard to get them out at that point 😅
Great video thanks
Thanks for watching Steve!
I don’t know if you ever been to Miami, but how bad is traffic there compare to Miami?
I have; family out that way. Def not as bad if we compare peak hour to peak hour, 95 and 826 traffic is serious. Not to understate Orlando traffic though, but I feel you’d be able to manage I-4 compared to what you’re doing now.
Here's one for you what do you think the most affordable apartment housing is in your orlando area
Honesty don't know my friend. I really stick to the buying and selling arena; I've heard of plans to build affordable housing units in the future though.
why would you kill a garden snake ???
Sorry…not used to the snake and wildlife loving nature in America, grew up a bit different. I know they were called garden snakes but at the time had no clue lol

from Cocoa Bch/ Space Coast, All 5 because of the Cent Fla radio towers all being 100kw at at least 1600 ft
boomed into Stu.
And because its flat as a pancake except NW going toward Ocala. In Orl proper you got 4 more stations.
You get Tampa at time W-101 WUSA, Mix 95.7 , NW you get 98.5KTK, and used to be Ocala's 93.7 WMMZ Z-93. Before they blew it up and changed to country in 1994. How do I know? I was supposed to be their evening jock. Until they fired everyone incl my future boss. All 9 of these stations were Adult Contemp and Hot Ac stations.
Which was rare to have so many in any radio US market. Only SF, Pitt because they are both on hills,
and Chicago had so many.
So spent a week up there about 100 miles nw of me by Stuart.
Check out the area see if I wanted to try it out. It was a huge disappointment. Outside the Orange Blossom Trail,
which kind of reminded me of Dade- NW 2nd Av between Palmetto and Broward line back then. 167th St and 215.

Even Overtown Miami's worst hood was not as scary looking. Liberty City was only area that reminded me of Orlando.
I don't know if Disney and industry that moved in since 90's
has helped. Or made it worse. But you couldn't pay $1 mil to ever live in O.
I could always say same about St Pete, Ft Myers, Sarasota, Ocala, Gainesville, Daytona, Titusville, Tally, and most of Jax as well. Though when in radio I survived 6 mos living off Dunn @95, not far from Jax Intl.
Back then Tampa was not good, I heard its improved. West Palm was mostly hood, so was/is Ft L, Miami anything
outside downtown was crap. Especially whole NW anything. But even NE was very seedy esp by Biscay, US 1 all the way up to NMB.
love the background info please
If by that you mean location, this was filmed at the Sculpture Garden by the Wave Hotel in Lake Nona.
crime in o suburbs
Typical stuff
Cool..naw bro..is Hot
Hey hello!
Can you advice me on neighborhoods to search for Airbnb close to transpirtation hubs ?
I don’t drive and planning a 5 day trip
Hi there, try looking around Downtown Orlando. A lot of public transport around that area, otherwise you’d probably need a car.
@@OrlandowithMario Baldwin Park ?
Thank you for replying, awesome !
No problem! More like closer to lake Eola so the milk district, Thornton park etc. Baldwin Park does not allow for Airbnb’s.
Appreciate the honesty. Looks like people still kayak, canoe where there are gators but that sounds scary. 😱🐊🛶
Yea they have a couple of those experiences around town, I choose to admire them from a distance 😅. Maybe one day I’ll try it out for the channel.
@@OrlandowithMario maybe the camera person needs to take one for the team and you can take the video and do the narration on that one. 😁
@@dc5954 sounds like a plan 😂👌
