Then you probably know that people Do Not want to end up on the other side of I-4 from Church St. Parramore Ave etc. Unless of course they want to buy some crack. Stay on the East side of I-4 which is downtown historical touristy party area. On the West side of I-4, they party with MD 20/20, 40oz malt liquor etc
I was Pensacola and later Jacksonville. I went to Orlando only occasionally. The climate between Jacksonville and Orlando (pretty much anywhere more than a mile from the beach) was stifling 6-8 months out of the year.
Pretty much any major city in Florida has it’s ghetto side. I have never been into the drug crowd. Like you said, stay away.
