If you didn't live here back during that time then you don't realize what *very SUDDENLY made Florida nice to live in.* In the 1950s *window unit A/C "boxes"* came onto the market. When I was born here in 1962 we had one, just 1 unit in my parent's bedroom. When I was 5 or 6 it was a really big deal when we also installed a unit in our living room. When my parents got divorced the first place we moved to had no A/C at all and so I fully understand why people didn't want to live here before A/C!

My family moved to Winter Park in 1967, first renting a house for 10 months. We got there in mid August and the temps stayed in the 90's well into October, with no AC in that rented house. It was miserable.

I remember being on a vacation with my parents driving through the Orlando area back in 1967 and there were actually still a few orange groves at that time.

Some nice campus shots of my Alma Mater, Edgewater High School, which has since been torn down and replaced. Shots of Rollins College, too. Fifty years ago Orlando was pretty nice.

Love knowing what came before born here in 72'. The most amazing city as a child to grow up in. It was all brand new, less populated, all orange, citrus groves, Mickey, Minnie and Space Shuttle launches. We then watched Epcot start building a big, silver globe and the Orlando Magic did not even exist. We had the Citrus/ Tangerine Bowl, beaches 45 min away and the Minnesota Twins minor league team at Tinker Field, military base, Manatees, people from all over, everywhere either moving down or just visiting. And those Superfriend /Hatfield and McCoy shows were too. Nobody was crying about Shamu either. We were amazed and usually soaked after watching the shows from up close. Truly a Magical City Beautiful.

I lived in DaytonaBeach in the 60s. Then Winter Park. Later in Kissimmee in the 70s. It was nice.

It sounds like Orlando was on the verge of growing into a tech hub before it was ruined by Disney and excessive tourism. Orlando now has a low-wage tourism dominated economy.

WHY is it that certain whites have such issue with all non-whites?? First the land is dangerous due to the NATIVE, red people, so you’ll put them on reservations, took away their land, and killed anyone who You felt stepped out of line. Then you all need slaves and servants and so you ship Africans over and treat them like animals. The moment that we get our freedom and (ever so slightly) move up in the world, y’all partake in “white flight” to try and make sure you keep segregation going. Now comes the new wave of immigrants from Latin countries. Suddenly all the problems are pinned on Latinos and certain groups of white people are scrambling to try and get them kicked out........... or if worse comes to worse, shoot up groups of them in Walmarts. It’s amazing that with every non-white race that comes here, Certain people rush to place inaccurate and stereotypical labels upon them, and scrambling to “take care” of them and the problem. All of that is so unnecessary.
