I left the area in 1982 and the only thing I recognize is the huge Baptist Church downtown. Ugh, I miss the good ole days. I went there a lot when I was going to FTU in 1970s. Whatever happened to the Citizens Bank of Oviedo???
Hi! Thank you so so so much for your videos. I'm trying to make the decision of moving to either Oviedo or to Ocala. My main concern was safety and cleanliness of the streets. I hear there are significantly more homeless people in Ocala. Since you have driven in both areas can you provide a little perspective? Thank you again!
Yeah Oviedo looked cleaner from what I saw. It's pretty suburban in character and looked very quiet. I'd also choose Oviedo due to the proximity to Orlando. Ocala is quite a hike to a major city and its amenities.
Oviedo is an overbuilt, badly planned nightmare. Apartments are taking over every open lot and traffic is worse than Atlanta. The apartments are bringing every manner of thug into town and instead of a quiet town you'll find unknowns wandering the neighborhoods at all hours of the night. realtors have created a false image of the area and their buddies developing the place are making a killing. But then my family has only barely been associated with the place since the 1800's, what would I know?
Mann! Welp this is after they tore down all the old "Downtown oviedo" vintage shops! The karate places that had been there forever! And a few other stores! My friend lived right on celery circle right in that area so I ALWAYS was going through there! Mann.... what a LIFE TIME ago!💔💔💔
Around 9:28 💔💔💔 The bowling alley right there! Mann... we blazed soooooo much motá in that parking lot! Chilling in cars. I remember landing a SIIIICCKK kickflip while skating n waiting for my friends to rollup! Get the "come on!" And did the trick! Landed but it slipped out! Went straight up n cracked my skull hard!! Wasn't anything a lil puff couldn't fix!! Also was in that parking lot waiting for 2 friends to meet me n my cuzzo to smoke! It was on the day they announced Layne Staley (Alice in chains) singer had passed away. 4/20 I believe it was. Was soooooo heavy.
That bowling alley still standing. Can't really see it because all the trees but I'm glad the state didn't take it down like the other business in the downtown Oviedo
