Central Florida Work and Play

While most people associate the greater Orlando area with the tourism industry, aerospace and aviation are still major industries in Central Florida along side of other companies in the high-tech sector such as information technology, medical research and biotechnology. Another industry taking hold in the area are companies involved in entertainment, especially TV/film production and video games/simulations.

A major attraction for these cutting edge industries locating to the greater Orlando areas is the quality of the available workforce. A reason for this is the importance of quality educational facilities in the area. Central Florida is the home to more than 30 Universities, colleges, and institutions of high education. Among those are Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Rollins College, Stetson University, Full Sail Real World Experience, and the University of Central Florida (UCF). UCF is the 7th largest university in the United States and is the fastest growing university in the South.

But all work and no play would make a pretty dull place to live. Living in Central Florida is anything but! Where else can you live that offers the world’s best theme parks, year round golf, and world class beaches all within a short drive? About the only things you can't do in Central Florida is snow skiing and mountain climbing but you can water ski and go indoor rock climbing. Living in Central Florida offers great year round recreation possibilities. Whether you're into the rush of roller coasters or kicking back in a kayak you'll find a piece of Central Florida to call your own.
