Quality of Life

One significant factor that sets Metro Orlando apart is its remarkable quality of life. Those who venture into Orlando beyond our world-famous tourist attractions quickly realize that this is a uniquely “livable” community. Distinctive, brick streets and tree lined neighborhoods; year-round outdoor recreation; proximity to beaches, lakes, springs, parks and trails; world-class entertainment options; professional sports; cultural events; closets free of winter coats, scarves and gloves … all contribute to an environment that most never want to leave once they’ve called it home. In fact, companies of all types and sizes find that that our unparalleled quality of life enhances employee recruitment and retention.

Metro Orlando stacks up well against competing business locations. A trio of state-of-the-art performing arts and sports centers are planned for the region. And for those that prefer to get-away from the city pace, residential acreage remains abundant, offering quiet space with proximity to the urban center.
