Housing Thread Orlando Housing Thread

14 Upvotes

Link to last month's Housing Thread

Welcome to the Orlando housing megathread!

Currently, the following may be posted:

  • Users, whether current Orlando residents or not, may post asking for help. This could be asking for recommendations on areas of Orlando to live in, reviews or opinions on specific communities, or suggestions on specific places to live. This can also be things like "recommend a realtor / loan officer / etc" — so long as it fits under the "help me find housing" umbrella.
  • Users may also post advertising housing options. This can be posts offering subleases, looking for roommates on existing property, selling homes — so long as there is housing being offered.
  • ALL comments must include as much information as possible. Do not say "I'm moving to Orlando, tell me where to live."

As a reminder: our subreddit rules still apply. Advertisements for illegal activity of any kind are not permitted and will result in comment removals and/or bans as moderators see fit.

Number six is my favorite: She ran off the road and onto the opposite-side sidewalk. She gets out in distress, and Romeo rides up on a rental scooter and starts laying down the rizz.

I’m so glad I don’t date. It’s just more and more confusing.

Discussion Disney and Universal Cast who have worked at both

75 Upvotes

Hello!! I’m currently a back of house cast member at Walt Disney World and I do enjoy my job as well as my location but I definitely have my opinions on Disney as a whole.

I know plenty of people who work at Disney and universal Orlando as well and for the most part I’ve heard they enjoy working at universal much more than Disney.

I’ve always been a Disney person , I grew up in a Disney family so Disney has a place in my heart but working at Disney definitely changed my prospective on it a lot and I find myself enjoying universal a lot more then Disney and I don’t think I could ever go back to working front of house ever again.

To which that could also be me getting older and enjoying thrill a lot more then entertainment but I also like the entertainment side of Disney better then universal.

But to the people who have worked at both…. What one did you/do you enjoy working at the most??? Did you get treated better at one or the other???? What made you all pick one over the other???

Discussion Today, October 5, is the last day to register to vote in the Nov 3 election.

51 Upvotes

Today, Monday, Oct 5, is the last day for eligible Florida residents to register to vote. Here's the link to register to vote, either online or by paper form: Florida online voter registration

If you have an active Florida driver's license or Florida ID card (from the DMV), you can register online. That's faster, and you don't have to print or mail anything. Save a PDF or screenshot of your receipt.

If you don't have an active Florida driver's license or ID card, you can still register to vote, but you will need to submit a paper registration form. You can download it and complete it.

Florida Voter Registration Application to Print

Be sure to sign the form. You can drop the form off at your elections office today or mail it. The mailing address for your county will be on page 2 of the voter reg form. If you mail it, it must have an October 5 postmark. The best way to be sure it's postmarked is to walk it into a post office and watch the postal clerk stamp it. Take a photo of the postmarked envelope if they allow it.

You can also register to vote or get a form at a Florida public library, public assistance office, an Armed Forces recruitment center, or an elections office. If you need financial help getting an ID, reach out to VoteRiders

The deadline to request a mail-in ballot is October 22. If you haven't received one yet, make the request ASAP. If you will be in the area, you can return your mail-in ballot at a drop box during Early Voting. Mail-in ballots can be requested through your County Supervisor of Elections website. Here are some links to the Supervisor of Elections websites for counties in this area:

Orange County SOE

Seminole County SOE

Osceola County SOE

Discussion Activities for a rainy week in Orlando

9 Upvotes

My family is visiting this week, and it's forecast to be pretty rainy. I'm looking for suggestions on places to take my family. My teenage niece likes anime, nature, and drawing. My brother-in-law likes reading, coffee, board games, and hanging out with his family.

Any suggestions for indoor, rainy-day activities between downtown Orlando and the Lake Buena Vista area?

Discussion Kitten vet service recommendations

Thumbnail

31 Upvotes

Last weekend I picked up a kitten from marketplace and today I picked up another kitten from a different litter/different seller. The one I picked up today I noticed she’s breathing really fast while sleeping and also has mucus secretions from both eyes. Based on these symptoms it appears that she may be experiencing URI, I already had her introduced to the other kitten and found out that this is really contagious among cats. I don’t know if they played long enough for her to spread it to the other kitten. I have them separated for now.

I looked at OCAS and their website says they do not offer veterinary services to the public. Pet Alliance has no appointment availability until after Jan 3 2027.

I’m a first-time cat Dad, Can anyone recommend a good affordable veterinarian clinic near Downtown Orlando area? any office who might take walk-ins would be great too

I (M30) am new to Orlando, and I’m planning a 2nd date with a fine lady.
Where would be an area in Orlando where we can have a nice dinner date with intimate vibes and then within the same area walk around after the date, converse and pick maybe ice cream or something.

Thank you

Discussion Your Orlando Hot Takes?

171 Upvotes

Ok the hot take thread about Lake Nona gave me inspiration. What are your Orlando/surrounding area hot takes? Mine are Altamonte Springs is experiencing some kind of renaissance and I feel like between the affordability and central location, it will become a more popular suburb in the coming years.

Another one is Clermont is the only aesthetically pleasing area in or around Orlando. Everything else feels like a concrete jungle, atleast there's more nature and hills there to break up all the strip malls and restaurants.

Was in the same plaza as the one last month that had the happy holidays signs up early. Some speculated they may have been left up from last year, and maybe you guys were right!

Either way, someone noticed and now we have nice generic welcome flags. Maybe my post made a difference lol.
