Downtown Orlando and areas north and east of the city support a fairly normal Florida way of life. Lots of retirees, families and working professionals gravitate towards Winter Park, Maitland and other suburbs north. The employment base in the area outside of tourism is relatively strong, with a large high-tech and military high-tech presence. Notable employers include IBM, Siemens, Veritas, Electronic Arts, General Dynamics, and Northrup/Grumman. The area has also become a popular headquarters location for service businesses, includingrestaurateurs Darden, Hard Rock Café and Ruths Chris Steakhouse. Overall the employment base is becoming more diverse.

The cost of living and housing has risen considerably in recent years but is considered by many to be reasonable for a place with so many amenities, The central location and transportation network give excellent access to other areas in Florida, and air service is excellent. Orlando has grown very rapidly since Disney arrived, resulting in considerable sprawl. The area continues to grow to the northeast towards Sanford and Deltona. Traffic can be bad and commute times long. The crime rate is also one of the state’s highest. Because of its inland location the Orlando area is generally thought to have less hurricane risk.
