Current Resident: I moved to Oviedo Florida in 2017. We built our first home here in a gated community near A-rated schools. I attended Oviedo High School, which is known for Its academic performance. My school offered several AP classes and dual enrollment opportunities for me. In addition, Oviedo Is also becoming more urbanized. Historically, Oviedo was a small rural town near Orlando, FL. But, as land keeps developing, so does the community around it. There are several shops and restaurants along Mitchel Hammock rode and Alafaya. The Oviedo mall is even being remodeled to house hundreds of new modern-style apartments. There are many new medical facilities and daycare centers right around the corner. Oviedo, FL is definitely one of the best places to live in Florida!... Read 312 reviews

Parent: Bishop McNamara is a wonderful school that provides a safe, family oriented environment and a challenging academics. I had a son that previously attended Mac and a daughter that is a current rising Junior. She loves school and is excelling in her academics. She is also very active in various activities at school such as: Orchestra, Student Council, various clubs and Lacrosse. McNamara has helped her to come out of her shell and try new things. It has also assisted her with learning time management, balancing her schedule and activities, being her own advocate when needed and preparing her for the next level. I am confident she will be very prepared for college and what life has to offer.... Read 347 reviews

Current Resident: Altamonte Springs is an up and coming suburb of Orlando with something for everyone! It is friendly and convenient to downtown as well as Maitland and Winter Park, without the high price tag! The schools and parks are great, we especially love Pawmosa dog park and the food truck events at Lake Concord. There are community events for July 4 and Christmas at Cranes Roost Park. We’ve lived in the Orlando area for over 20 years, and specifically in Altamonte Springs for the past two years, and we love it!... Read 184 reviews

Current Resident: I like that Chuluota is a small town, its very peaceful here. The crime is minimal, and very friendly. Every tries to help each other out even if they aren't your neighbors. The town is quiet, with no heavy traffic noises at night. My husband grew up here and his grandfather helped build this town up, so we have a lot of history in this town. The thing I would improve about this town is to add drainage in the streets to help avoid flooding. I would also like them to add sidewalks for the safety of kids and dogs walking and playing. There is a really good mini store here, with a very friendly owner. He holds events during holidays for all residents. The VFW has plenty of entertainment including Bingo and Sunday breakfast. We also have a lovely peaceful park a couple miles down the road from us with a beautiful lake to kayak, swim or fish in. I would like the county to make some improvements that I mentioned earlier to help make this a better place, more like an update... Read 9 reviews

Current Resident: Longwood is not only a very clean, very safe neighborhood, but it is also located near many great schools, parks, and places like Wekiva State Park and Wekiva Island. There are many families that live in this area and all of them are friendly, and willing to attend the community events held at a nearby park on holidays. There are also tons of great walking paths; my dad and I go on walks around the neighborhood almost everyday. I've loved growing up in Longwood!... Read 95 reviews

Current Resident: If you want the convenience of all everything Orlando has to offer (and better prices than Winter Park, Windermere, Dr. Phillips, etc), this area is great! You're away from the hustle and bustle of the parks. PLENTY of shopping and great restaurants within just a few short miles. Schools (particularly Valencia, Full Sail, and UCF) are all nearby. Everything really is at your disposal here, AND you're extremely close to toll roads (417 & 408), making it easy to get ANYWHERE quickly.... Read 68 reviews

Senior: My experience of attending schools in Sarasota County for 13 years was a roller coaster! As the years went by, school was getting harder each time. There're days where I was stressed of having a spelling test to having a 100-question exam. I had loops going in my head with all this craziness happening, but all the help came from the best teachers in Sarasota County. Thanks to them for giving me the right education I needed....
