But is FL really doing that? Is there really space available?Oh, sure. There's tons of space in central Florida. Take, for example, the area near The Villages. The Villages is a
massive retirement/elderly community well northwest of Orlando, with some 150K residents. It's literally the fastest growing place in the entire country. It's
surrounded by vacant land - to the east to US 441, to the west to I-75, and almost unlimited area to the South. Which is why it's expected to nearly double in population within the next ten years or so:

massive amounts of land that's either just undeveloped or very marginal ag land.
