Kissimmee, Florida USA 1950's

Crazy how much it has changed.

[@Charlie-Cat.]

Shame what happen to Kissimmee. It's now a dump.

[@arejayerobster]

And why? I wonder....

[@UnknownDJ46]

Some ppl messed this place up

[@itznoah-iz5zt]

@@arejayerobster I’m afraid it’s due to Disney’s impact on the Central Florida area. Once the Magic Kingdom was up, so were the first tourist traps on 192, Orange World being among the first. Throughout the 80s and 90s, more and more tacky gift shops and experiences would open among Highway 192. The fact most people these days only know Kissimmee now for these kind of places is incredibly sad. I wonder if, given the circumstances, this could have ended up happening to Clermont instead?

The Kissimmee of old. It has since been ruined.

Yep I've heard new here... When cilulture and pride and such tribalism are so strong that is sin... We need more True born again Christians. Many Hispanics and mainly here are the ones from the islands are ignorant the majority we need to pray The Gospel has deeper affect here

[@itznoah-iz5zt]

Blame Highway 192 and it’s many gift shops and motels for Kissimmee’s decline
